“MEXA offers the audience a dinner, and cake for dessert. Devouring is a way of experiencing, and we devour what MEXA puts on the table: couscous, chicken, wine, cake, and their own history. A metatheatrical piece is also an anthropophagic exercise.” Fernando Pivotto, Tudo, Menos Uma Crítica

“Through a frenetic dramaturgy and a modern reinterpretation of The Last Supper [Leonardo da Vinci’s painting], MEXA transforms theater into an explosive celebration.” Louis Thiébaut, RTBF Actus

“The extraordinary energy of The Last Supper perhaps comes from the act of founding a new and entirely absurd church—their own. The succession of events, in the Teatro Oficina sense of the term, that the show generates at every moment; the avenues of seduction, the nuances of acting, the transitions between the most vulgar and the most elevated, the communion with the audience, and the theatrical beauty, are probably due to the two pillars of this parodic-religious edifice whose foundation we witness:

a) the absence of resentment regarding the traumas and life histories of each believer (that is, the actors and technical team), and

b) the fearless and non-blasphemous appropriation of Christian religious discourse.”

Nuno Ramos, Folha de S.Paulo
