“…a fully rendered homage to the human memory, to the words we keep in our hearts so we will never forget them.” —The Theatre TimesTiago Rodrigues begins By Heart with an assurance that everything will be “calm and normal.” What he omits is just how un-normal “normal” can be. The acclaimed Portuguese playwright proceeds to invite 10 volunteer audience collaborators on stage to learn a sonnet live, while weaving in personal stories and literary references. Inspired by his grandmother who must increasingly rely on memory as her vision deteriorates, the artist engages memory as a tool of resistance. In a time when key words and ideas are being scrubbed from the record, Rodrigues reminds us that it is we who are the keepers.
