Joao, an in-mate at one of Rio’s prisons, should never have crossed
paths with Maria’s, a girl who normally confines herself to her flat.
But on 31st December 1999, however, Joao escapes from prison. Maria is,
at the time, roaming Rio’s streets. The police are searching for
Joao in the slums and alley-ways of Copacabana. Then the count-down for
New Year starts. Lost in her misery, Maria goes to her flat’s balcony
where Joao is hiding. And it is there, between heaven and earth, that
Joao and Maria meet. They stay together for one night only, until new
year’s day.

Pericles is a journey. At the beginning, there’s an old man with
a story to tell, and a young man with a riddle to solve. Fourteen years
later, after shipwrecks and resurrections, palaces and brothels, marriagebeds
and murders, the story is finally told; the journey has been made –
and the riddle is answered in a blaze of light.

Frankie Woyzeck lives in a bedsit in a garrison town and he hears voices.
Not just voices from next door, voices from the Freemasons or the Bilderbergs
or whoever it is controls things. Frankie W believes that conspiracy stuff.
Frankie scrabbles a life, lending his body to medical experiments in return
for a few pennies, doing menial jobs for the captain of the local territorials
– all for his lovely Marie and his little boy. But the word is she’s
got something going with the Drum Major at the local camp …
As the only professional theatre company in the UK working with homeless
and ex-homeless people, CARDBOARD CITIZENS formed in 1991 and has toured
Forum Theatre productions to hostels, day centres, youth clubs, schools,
universities and arts centres. Forum Theatre provides its audience with
the opportunity to be practically involved in examining and seeking to
resolve problems faced by the characters in the play.
