Mário Coelho

A story of “boy meets girl” and “girl meets boy”, I’m Still Excited! discusses the end of a relation between two people with a party as background that is also a theatre rehearsal. To say anything else could ruin the surprise. You’re invited to celebrate the anniversary of Still Body, that is to say Her, that is to say Rita. Bring food or gifts, and I may shed a tear at the end of the evening. Or not. It’s my party, and I’ll do what I want. — Mário Coelho
