Dance show ‘The Colors of Latin America’ arrives at Teatro Amazonas

The show performed by Panorando Cia is free and admission to the Theater is free.

Amazonas – Teatro Amazonas hosts, this Wednesday (27th), at 8pm, the dance show “As Cores da América Latina”. The presentation is carried out by Panorando Cia, with support from the State Government, through the Secretariat of Culture and Creative Economy. Classification is free and entry is free.

The show mixes urban and contemporary dances, with colors and aesthetics promoting a journey through Latin American culture, starring traditional events, such as the Fiesta de La Tirana (Chile), Huaconada (Peru) and the Brazilian scenic festival Cavalo-Marinho.

“The scenic visuality makes use of a vibrant color palette, in addition to six masks of ‘Fofão’, a traditional character from the Maranhão Carnival, in Brazil, which complete the characters’ aesthetics”, said the event director, Fábio Moura. And he adds that “the show talks about Latin American multiculturalism, interacting some traditions from other countries with elements of our popular culture”.

The project was included in the Manaus 2022 Prize Competition Thiago de Mello | Artists and Cultural Professionals, from the Municipal Foundation for Culture, Tourism and Events (Manauscult) and the Municipal Council of Culture (Concultura).
