Huge queues and 10 thousand tickets sold: Fernanda Montenegro’s monologue causes a sensation at the Sesc


With tickets sold out in less than 30 minutes for the 20 show dates, Fernanda, at the height of her 94 years, shows the strength of theater

The second day of ticket sales for the show Fernanda Montenegro reads Simone de Beauvoir, all 10 thousand places for the 20 days of presentation were sold out. In a note, the Sesc specifies that during the online sale there were more than 130 thousand simultaneous accesses. And in in-person sales, in less than 30 minutes there were no more seats available, according to unofficial information provided by a Sesc employee.

“The Sesc São Paulo regrets the inconvenience that occurred and understands that the approximately 10 thousand tickets sold out, in a short period, strengthen the institution’s commitment to promoting public training actions and democratizing access to culture”, explains the Sesc 14 Bis press office.

Sesc 14 Bis, in Sao Paulo, will be the new stage for the monologue of Fernanda Montenegro. A portion of the tickets have been released for online sales, which began last Tuesday, the 11th, with a full house on the same day. But it was during the physical sale, on the afternoon of Wednesday the 12th, that the fans showed the actress’s expression, stopping the Sesc São Paulo units.

“Fernanda Montenegro’s live at Allianz Parque is becoming inevitable,” joked X (formerly Twitter) user Giancarlo Rufatto.

On social media, fans shared images of the huge queues that formed to purchase tickets Fernanda Montenegro reads Simone de Beauvoir.

The show is directed and performed by the actress and inspired by the opera The farewell ceremonyof the French philosopher Simone de Beauvoir. In a note, Fernanda commented on her first contact with Beauvoir. “My approach to Simone de Beauvoir’s work dates back to when I was 20. This fundamental feminist is a reference personality in my generation.”
