Dramaturgical Cooperative
The Dramaturgical Cooperative, created in 2023, is a meeting space dedicated to the written component of performing arts projects. These meetings take place fortnightly among the members, from October to June.
Each member of the Cooperative discusses a creative project in an environment of cooperation, constructive criticism, sharing, and creative trust. The Cooperative addresses the lack of spaces to discuss conceptual thinking and dramaturgy in Portugal. Its approach is free, non-hierarchical, and horizontal.
The dramaturgical cooperative is currently composed of the following artists: Afonso Molinar, Catarina Vieira, Leonor Cabral, Luísa Fidalgo, Mafalda Jacinto, Mariana Ferreira, and Miguel Afonso.
Bruno Fraga, Filipa Leão, and Guilherme Gomes were part of the first edition.
