In this show celebrating the 41st birthday of the Maria Matos Theatre, the stage is transferred to the rooms at the Lutécia Hotel. Eight Portuguese and international playwrights were invited to write a story that takes place in a room at this hotel. The audience watches the show, which unfolds on the balconies of the façade of the hotel, listening to the dialogue through headphones.
