Part of the Royal Court’s ground-breaking international season, these plays are a unique double-bill of new Brazilian plays in English translation. Both plays are avowedly influenced by Harold Pinter, but have their own uncanny way of building atmosphere by what is not said. Barbosa’s writing hints at the murky morality that lies beneath the surface of normal life.

Two tense and unnerving short plays from talented Brazilian playwright, Marcos Barbosa.In Almost Nothing, Antonio and Sara are being playful as they prepare to go to bed, but they cannot ignore what lurks outside. In a world where a life can mean almost nothing, just how far does one have to go to keep the demons at bay?In At the Table, six men's lives collide in a web of fear, duty and responsibility. Encounters twenty years apart show the reverberations from an undisclosed incident as Luis and Marcio try to come to terms with their past.The two plays were premiered, in English translations by Mark O'Thomas, in a double bill at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 2004.'You can't see Marcos Barbosa's double bill without knowing that the theatre has discovered and developed a young Brazilian dramatist of considerable potential' The Times'Wonderful.
