Dates & times

The pace literally picks up when the ten dancers in Carcaça throw themselves into the energetic and intricate footwork of Marco da Silva Ferreiras’ choreography. A hybrid dance style, in which urban forms of dance connect to folkloric dance traditions, pulls you into an energetic, rhythmic and intense dance experience. The dancers’ bodies unite in a vibrant, intuitive and carnivalesque wave of movement.

Musically, the dancers are accompanied by drums played by João Pais Filipe and electronic music by Luís Pestana, a soundtrack which runs through the production and brings in references from traditional, postmodern and club music. Carcaça (which means corpse or skeleton in Portuguese) is a production anchored in the present and focused on the future with its roots in the past.

Smoke is used on stage in this performance.
