Corpo Nómada (Nomadic Body) transports us to different parts of the world, exploring cultural interaction, the diversity of customs and traditions, highlighting the need to understand and respect cultural plurality among Europeans and non-Europeans.
The melancholy of the musical landscapes inspires the scenic environment, strongly marked by the visual component, in a game of intimacies created by the intersection of images and light design, which transport us into the wandering paths of the characters in our stories and make us feel their breath as if it were our own.
With images and light, we will bring other characters to life in our stories, through projections materialised in different materials and objects, which will follow the musicians and acrobat on stage, giving a life of their own to each of the stories, each of the characters, each musical note, each sung word, each acrobatic gesture.
Corpo Nómada (Nomadic Body) starts from an imaginary world that materialises the transversality of artistic expressions, creating a timeless space where voice, piano and body come together. The stories begin in a distant place, because stories are precisely the reason for this encounter. And because stories and myths have always needed a special place to be told, let us return to a home, to our Home – a cave, a womb where all dreams are born. Exoduses and migrations are the premise for reflection on these contemporary wanderings.
Musicians Filipe Raposo and Rita Maria are joined by an acrobat, constructing a narrative that reflects on the human condition, a journey through baroque music, jazz and contemporary circus.
