Zona Franca
estreia nacional
A dance group, which is greater than the sum of its members, walks in a Brazil that is reborn from the ashes. We watch our several deaths and lives during a lifetime, like the snake leaving its dead skin behind, and we bring to the stage questions about the crossroads. How do the struggles within us take place between the forces that make us up? Would a nation be capable of choosing to head to destruction? We continue the group’s research—which we started in the previous performances, Suave and Cria—on the relation between Brazil’s urban and folk dances, on the one hand, and a contemporary staging, on the other hand, wondering which voices those dances articulate and what we can express through them. — Alice Ripoll
