#REPÚBLICA
(2017)

#Republic is the first Coletivo 302's play and is a result of a project approved by the Government of  São Paulo, through a public financial incentive culture program (ProAc 03/2016), a reward directed only for new groups and plays. Thought for young audiences, the performance presentations were part of an action strategy to occupy an underused deposit, Galpão Cultural.

Directed by Douglas Lima and Lucas Bêda, #Republic made its first season from June 02nd to 25th of 2017, performing 13 shows to a full house every night, receiving an average of 800 people. Still, in the same project, the play embarked on a tour over five cities with industrial characteristics, dialoguing with high school youth. In September of 2017 made part of the 59th Festa - Santos Theater Festival (Brazil/SP). In 2018, making part of the Circuito Cultural Paulista, a program for cultural diffusion and audience formation, promoted by the State Government of São Paulo and promoted by APAA, 302 offered three performances in the countryside of the state. In April of the same year, the group was invited to join a meeting, promoted by Sesc Santos, an important Brazilian institution, to dialogue about territorial actions in a program aimed for the youth, and since this event, all its members have been invited to give free art workshops to this social project.
