Time: 7:30 PM
Location: TBA – Teatro do Bairro Alto, Rua Tenente Raul Cascais 1a – Lisbon
Room: Main

Description:
The Shadow Whose Prey The Hunter Becomes explores human rights, sexual politics, and the projected dominance of artificial intelligence. Through errors, misreadings, and misunderstandings, this play reminds us of human interdependence and both individual and collective responsibility. The story unfolds during a public meeting, the kind you would expect in a democracy, where crucial decisions are made for the common good.

Back to Back Theatre, based in Geelong, Australia, is driven by actors who identify as having an intellectual disability or as neurodivergent. With awards like the Ibsen Award (2022) and the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale (2024), the company brings a profound reflection on society and contemporary issues.
