Nova Melancholía Theatre Group

Habemus Papam, Walter


“A whirlwind. Walter Benjamin thinking out loud. Everything’s a matter of editing. The Pope is dead. Long live the Pope. The automaton of History throwing out phrases”: the Nova Melancholía experimental theatre company seeking to redefine writing for the stage. How can the political and religious issues of History inject vigour into the present? Seven performers attempt to rouse our hearts and minds with Habemus Papam, Walter , a “hybrid” text / collage.



Duration 1 hours and 30 minutes with no interval.
