LET IT STAIN, a play directed by João Braz, 2025
Through a nonlinear series of unfortunate events, Let It Stain depicts life as a tango between love and violence. We follow moments of connection gradually being swallowed by the brutality of human nature. The actors bring different tableaux to the stage, pushing and contorting their bodies to express their deepest and rawest feelings. Images of love, yearning, and aggression fill the stage, resulting in an epic dark comedy that aims to reveal our naked truth.
At In Motion Theatre Company, I worked as a Creative Director, responsible for shaping
company’s visual identity. Over six months, I documented rehearsals twice a month and three
final performances, which culminated in a sold-out show. I recorded video footage, including
Conversations with the Director, designed the show program, and created three promotional
posters. In addition, I produced visual content for promotional campaigns and archived over
10,000 photographs, which will be developed into a photobook/zine. I also managed the
company’s social media platforms, engaging audiences and promoting upcoming productions.
