Gisberta - aviso à navegação

O espectáculo é imperdível, Rita Ribeiro tem uma excelente performance, o décor é original, na globalidade é uma peça muito boa. Mas quem tiver na ideia visualizar a prestação vídeo de Lara Crespo terá de esperar até mesmo ao fim, depois do ecrã ficar preto com "Gisberta" escrito a branco. No primeiro segmento de vídeo, o encenador e, presumo, a produção resolveram prescindir das filmagens da Lara a andar de baloiço, substituindo por baloiços vazios a balouçarem a preto e branco. No segundo segmento a cabeça que se adivinha coberta de efeitos é efectivamente da Lara, nas filmagens dentro de água, mas não dá para se perceber, podia ser uma cabeça qualquer com montes de efeitos em cima de modo a que não se perceba nada da imagem, mesmo fora de água. Finalmente, depois da peça acabar e de estar o ecrã a preto como disse, quem esperar e não sair logo poderá ver uns segundos da Lara nas filmagens, com o espelho na mão e a afastar-se dos baloiços. Quem desejar ver melhor, pode ver as fotos das filmagens no seu próprio (da Lara) perfil no Facebook.
