The chandelier at the São Luiz Theatre is set to be lowered in a unique moment — and the audience is invited to watch. Every year, this iconic chandelier is lowered in silence, behind closed doors, to be cleaned and prepared for another season of applause. This year, as a one-off, the theatre is opening its doors to share this ritual of care and preservation, one of the venue’s best-kept secrets. A performance without a script or actors, where time seems to stand still.
