Playing actors and viewers. A play which may overpower its participants, but is impossible not to join. A group of actors is performing a play concerning bull´s resurrection from days immemorial until today. A frightening and a frightened look are trying to push each other out, and thus deliminate the stage and the auditorium. This Farm in the Cave´s scenic composition draws from rhythms and dance steps through which slaves in Brazil were shaking off their bonds and creating their own world.
DIVADLO / THE THEATRE
Background
The performance is based on researches on Afro-Brazilian cultural
manifestations in the Northern Brazil territory such as Maracatu-Rural,
Maracatu-Nacao, Cavalo Marinho to name a few. All of those Afro-
Brazilian carneval forms were born in sugarcane plantations: created
out of slavery situation - paradoxically steps and dances incorporated
very intense energy, vitality and tremendous power of life.
