Tiago Rodrigues - No Yogurt for the Dead [Teatro]

When Tiago Rodrigues' father was hospitalized, in the last weeks of his life, he was regularly visited by Teresa, a volunteer who spent time talking to patients, helping to combat the loneliness caused by the disease. During Tiago's visits, his father told him about his meetings with Teresa and, one day, asked her to bring a notebook and a pen, to write a book about her experiences in the hospital. It even had a title: No Yogurt for the Dead. Tiago's father always hated yogurt, but he had started to like it, as it became part of his daily diet.

After his father's death, Tiago opened his notebook to see what he had written there. , but there were only a few lines and smudges. Father's hand must have been very weak - they were just scribbles. Later, Teresa told Tiago that her father constantly talked about the book, wanting to combine in it the experience of being hospitalized with memories of his life, especially those of his work as a journalist. It was then that Tiago Rodrigues decided to write No Yogurt for the Dead, about a volunteer who listens to the stories of a man about to die and about the book he never wrote.
