Passageiro Imaginário

A theatre workshop that invites participants to imagine and embody different people from the city of Porto, across generations, who might cross paths on a tram. Using the Museum’s Wardrobe, each participant becomes a character of their own creation, from a time period of their choice.
Through the development of identity and brief dialogic interactions, the activity explores the tram as a space of encounter, memory, and shared experience. Between the real and the imagined, small stories emerge that give voice to the people who make the Porto tram a living element of the city, connecting individuals, generations, and testimonies.
At the end, a historical figure associated with the city, the Baron of Trovisqueira, joins the younger participants and shares curiosities about the earliest tramcars.
