Manaus (AM) – The weekly schedule of Teatro Amazonas, starting on the Corpus Christi holiday, Thursday (06/08), brings a diversified program that brings together dance, music and ends with the second edition of the theater race, on a tour through the streets of the center of Manaus.

The theater doors open this Thursday, at 8 pm, for the Amazonas Folklore Ballet to present “A Dança do Sol”. The show is inspired by the work of Amazonian writer and teacher Mário Ipiranga Monteiro. The research to arrive at the performance was carried out in 1934 on the Mapiá river and talks about worshiping the sun through the eyes of the Arara Indians. The show lasts 40 minutes and the classification is free, with free admission.

The dance continues on Friday’s schedule (09/06), at 4 pm, with the “Sarau no Hall – Dançando o Amor”, also with the Folkloric Ballet of Amazonas.

It lasts 25 minutes and takes place in the lobby of Teatro Amazonas.

Also on Friday, classical music is present on the theater stage. With free admission, the “Concert with the Orquestra Pro Cultura do Amazonas” is presented, conducted by Rubens Souza.
