Velôsidades is a celebration, a musical show that brings Caetano Veloso’s lyrics, songs, thoughts, movements and attitudes on stage. Poetry, criticism, irony, contestation, experimentalism of the immense literary, musical, philosophical and visual legacy in more than 400 compositions and more than 50 years of career, are the sources for this multidisciplinary piece.
By blurring the boundaries between languages (dance, theater, visuals, music and performance), technical roles for artistics, audience for performers, we build a poetic and artistic universe that brings current and universal themes on discussion through political and social issues, mythical and religious references, love relationships, libertarian attitudes and everything possible in a tropicalist environment.
Velôsidades is a co-production by 4 artistic nucleus and 10 creators: Performers Clara Garcia Espada and Claudio Machado (União Instável Creaciones), Fábio Vidal (Território Sirius Teatro), the filmmakers Edson Bastos and Henrique Filho (Voo Audiovisual) and directors Jarbas Bittencourt and Daniel Guerra form the collective responsible for the creation and direction of this work. Along with them, responsible for the production of this show, are Ana Vasconcelos and Renata Hasselman (Multi Planejamento Cultural).
