Xavier de Sousa: POST
What the fuck is a national identity? And what exactly constitutes a ‘nation’? And why the hell are so many ready to die for it?
We live in an ever-shifting political and geographical landscape. Some believe we are heading towards a world without borders, without countries or nations. At the same time, many others vouch for protectionism and more borders. But very rarely we talk about the foundations of those borders and the influence they have on their citizens.
POST is a new theatre show by Xavier de Sousa inviting you to join us at the table, eat yummy Portuguese food, drink potent Cachaça, get merry, make new friends and challenge what exactly makes a ‘nation’.
