The Spiel
A recent sellout show at the Edinburgh Fringe, Amazons presents a compelling and mesmerising retelling of the stories of women from the world’s largest forest. Plant-sitting and live-streaming from her friend’s flat in the U.K., Gayara unearths the untold histories of her Amazonian ancestors, from those who watched the first Europeans lay claim to her land, to the women fighting to defend the forest today. Winner of the Guimarães Rosa Institute & Summerhall Arts Award 2025. Developed with the support of Norwich Theatre and King’s College Global Cultures Institute.
