Near the Big Forrest live a boy and his grandfather. The boy likes to scientise things: he has already invented a widener of paths and a firefly invitator. He talks to them in Morse code. António Jorge Gonçalves adapts to the stage Ondjaki’s O Convidador de Pirilampos, illustrated by himself. In this play narrated by Cláudia Semedo accompanied by clarinettist José Conde, the fear of the dark, freedom and the importance of stories will be addressed. With all the scenic magic of the dark.
