Are you looking at me?
2013

Promoted by Casa dos Choupos – Coopreativa Multisectorial de Solidariedade Social, CRL, the Poesia no Corpo Corpo na Poesia project aims to experiment with performance in an attempt to transform a space, taking into account collective creation and the performer as a whole being.


It promotes intergenerationality and collective involvement, with the participation of 12 individuals whose ages vary between 12 and 76 years old. If, on the one hand, Poetry benefits from being a place open to the intersection of other arts, namely Dance, Dance also benefits from being able to experience other universes, such as that of the Word.

Are you looking at me? It's a play about dancing in people's lives, about surrender and sharing. Dancing with Eyes Closed. Dancing in a group. Dance alone. Dancing in the street. Dancing at Home. Dancing with someone else…

Twelve people of different ages demonstrate the pleasure of dancing in a piece that reflects on intimacy and desire. When dancing, each performer is rewarded with the sensation of that pleasure, through movements present in their lives.
