SYNOPSIS
The multimedia show is based on studies of performativity in popular and afrodiasporic dances, moving between contemporary thinking and dancing and ancestral cosmologies. It investigates an apparition dance, related to plants of protection and caboclo dances. The performers propose a multi-sensory experience in which the audience is invited to jointly build the space. The action happens simultaneously between the sound creation developed in real time by Runa Francisc and the crossing-dance performed by Tieta Macau, Abeju Rizzo and Inaê Moreira. In this path, between dark and invisible, dancing and sound macumba rituals emerge.
Trigger warning: It contains partial nudity.
HISTORY
Plataforma Lança Cabocla is a project of scenic and audiovisual apparitions proposed by Tieta Macau, Abeju Rizzo, Elton Panamby and Inaê Moreira. As part of its trajectory developed at the Dance Creation Laboratory of Porto Iracema das Artes School, in Ceará, the platform has already carried out several actions, such as the mini-course “Travessias e Macumbarias” [Crossings and Macumbarias], the project “Assombros e Trincheiras” [Haunts and Trenches: what happens after the world ends (?)] and a series of video performances. It has been part of the program of shows such as Bienal Sesc de Dança, Mostra Resistências, Mopi, Pretaforma and Festival de Artes Cênicas of Ceará, as well as been awarded in the Originality and Photography category by the Sated award, in Maranhão.
