Mistério da Cultura

@ Ágata Xavier

Synopsis

Mistério da Cultura is, mostly, about culture, art, and its models of production, representation and support, but one can never be sure. It is a puzzle of motivations by the artists and the audience, a bureaucratic danced thriller, an enigma to be deciphered. On stage, several questions are raised: What remains of the initial desire to put on a performance? What is unseen when watching a piece? Is it really worth it, to dance, is it better to speak or to listen?
