A família, que depositava toda a sua esperança na pureza de Silene, começa a apodrecer, com a trama enveredando para um desfecho trágico. Direção: Lionel Fischer e Julia Stockler. Fundado em 1951 por Maria Clara Machado, o Tablado, contando com o patrocínio da Petrobrás e ajuda da Casa de Rui Barbosa, oferece "aulas livres" de improvisação para adultos, adolescentes e crianças a partir de 11 anos, uma vez por semana, com duração de 1h e 45m, ministradas por professores formados por Maria Clara.

Built at a cost of $94 million, Kodak Theatre was designed by the internationally-renowned Rockwell Group to be as glamorous as its onstage artists and celebrity guests, yet capable of serving the enormous technical needs of a live worldwide television broadcast on Oscar® night. The naming of Kodak Theatre, in a 20-year marketing partnership with Eastman Kodak Co., was one of the most significant non-sports corporate sponsorships in history.
