On stage, the actors Rúben Gomes and Manuel Wiborg read Sou o Vento, by Jon Fosse, a play that Pedro Lima premiered, alongside Manuel Wiborg, in this same room in May 2008, when the Kings of Norway and the Norwegian writer and playwright came to Lisbon on an official visit. “Now let’s go back to remember: a man lets himself drown on a boat trip with a friend. The friend cannot save him, helpless. And the other man disappears in the sea. It’s one of the most beautiful texts about depression and our blindness, moving. And more moving now, thinking about Pedro, dear actor. We won’t forget him. And we want to be together, as different as we are, as close to him as he wanted ”, says Silva Melo.
