  • The Dancing Public

    5 stars – praise of the doomed body What happens when the body wants to dance itself free and cannot be stopped? Possibly, as the aftermath of a natural disaster, a famine or a pandemic. Some said it’s the devil’s work, other said it’s a neurological problem. There might be a higher stake.

  • Manfred

    3 stars – flashing recitation Lights are dimmed and burning incense spreads its scent through the steamy air. A table which is an altar, as well as a DJ set. Lines of Lord Byron’s poem grow into threats of damnation….

  • Meteorologia: tempo para matar

    4 stars – lyrical hybrid A feminine body starts moving on stage. In the initial dimmed lights, she seamlessly acquires zoomorphic traits. Vitória Teles Grilo offers the audience a rare present: she allows access to the shapes and qualities of her conscious and unconscious imagination.

  • Dreams of the Small Gods

    5 stars – humanly divine What was mankind before it invented god? What was mankind before it got to the conclusion that it had invented god? There is something bringing us to a ‘beginning’, not the biblical one. There was a body, the body of the Wild Woman.

  • Transhumance

    3 Stars – pastel-colour journey A person embarks on a journey. She knows in which direction to go, but what he finds does not correspond to expectations. He embarks on a new journey. They find themselves in a new place, maybe more comfortable than the previous ones.
