"I don't know what goes on in the minds of these men who look for women to end the loneliness of their lives. To each of them I have a thing to give. In the end it's all the same." Rio de Janeiro, sunshine, 40 degrees Celsius. Gilda locks herself in her kitchen and begins to prepare the most delicious dishes. Outside the other women are furious. They accuse Gilda of poisoning their husbands with love. But Gilda is more generous and more dangerous than they can possibly imagine. Already a cult hit in Brazil, The Last Days of Gilda is a stunning one woman show whose explosive cocktail of food and sex, the sacred and the damned, violence and love reveals the true soul of Brazil's Favelas today. part of Arcola's Brazilian Season| 19 Jan 09 to 24 Jan 09 | Arcola Inner London, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
