Ateliê 23 launches the show “Da Silva” this week, with two free sessions in Itacoatiara, Manacapuru, Recife, Caruaru, Belo Horizonte and Ouro Preto.

The Amazon company’s programming also includes an urban dance workshop with Lore Cavalcanti and chats with the cast. The project is one of those included in the Funarte Circulation and Diffusion of Dance Award – 2022.

According to director Eric Lima, this is the first time that Ateliê 23 has had a season premiere in circulation. The presentation in Manaus is scheduled for the end of the circuit, in April.

“’Da Silva’ was a dance show and its watchword was overcoming. From this, we mixed the proposal with the idea of ​​popular culture and used our family stories as a metaphor, to talk about Brazilian families”, explained director Eric Lima.

According to the director, the work covers three languages, dance, theater and music in individual numbers.

“On stage, we are four performers and we have almost become a representation of society today, bringing our experience to the scene from the perspective of diversity and within this framework of racism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny and machismo”, highlighted the artist.
