Full details

From 22 to 25 October, the Auditório Carlos Avilez, in the Edifício Cruzeiro, presents the opera 'O Anel do Unicórnio' (The Unicorn's Ring), with music by Martim Sousa Tavares and stage direction by Rita Calçada Bastos. The various sessions are intended for schools and families. The initiative is part of the World Opera Day celebrations (25 October) and forms part of an important dimension of Cascais Ópera's work: bringing opera to new audiences and creating, from an early age, a close relationship with this art form. Keeping the original libretto, written by Ana Lázaro in 2021 and with music by Martim Sousa Tavares, this new presentation starts from the same story to build a completely renewed experience. Pedro Patê, a boy bored by his unusual luck, son of two opera singers, lives inside an Opera that never ends, together with the background music of an Orchestra that scores his every gesture. Bored with this condition, or with being dragged into epic adventures or intrigues and mischief by his father Bellini Bel Canto, a former barber in Seville, and his mother Faustina Balão, a true baroque diva, Pedro dreams of being an illusionist and discovering the trick that steals the singing from his family's mouths with just a snap of his fingers! Until one day, Faustina Balão's pet cat, Don Giovanni al Latte, mysteriously disappears, precisely on the day they celebrate their Silver Wedding Anniversary. After all, in the Opera there are no limits to the unexpected! Target audience: children aged 6 to 10. Tickets on sale soon (8.00 € per ticket, sessions for families). Information and registrations: [email protected]. Organisation: Cascais Ópera, with the support of the Câmara Municipal de Cascais.

Show original (Portuguese)

De dia 22 a 25 de outubro, o Auditório Carlos Avilez, no Edíficio Cruzeiro, apresenta a ópera "O Anel do Unicórnio", com música de Martim Sousa Tavares e encenação de Rita Calçada Bastos. As várias sessões destinam-se a escolas e famílias. A iniciativa integra as comemorações do Dia Mundial da Ópera (25 outubro) e inscreve-se numa dimensão importante do trabalho do Cascais Ópera: levar a ópera a novos públicos e criar, desde cedo, uma relação de proximidade com esta forma de arte. Mantendo o libreto original, escrito por Ana Lázaro em 2021 e com música de Martim Sousa Tavares, esta nova apresentação parte da mesma história para construir uma experiência completamente renovada. Pedro Patê, um rapaz enfadado pela sua invulgar sorte, filho de dois cantores líricos, vive dentro de uma Ópera que nunca acaba, juntamente com a música de fundo de uma Orquestra que pauteia cada gesto que faz. Aborrecido com esta condição ou de ser arrastado para aventuras épicas ou intrigas e tropelias pelo seu pai Bellini Bel Canto, um ex-barbeiro em Sevilha, e a sua mãe Faustina Balão, uma verdadeira diva barroca, Pedro sonha em ser ilusionista e descobrir o truque que roube as cantorias das bocas da sua família, apenas com um estalar de dedos! Até um dia, que o gato de estimação de Faustina Balão, Don Giovanni al Latte, desaparece misteriosamente, precisamente no dia em que celebram as Bodas de Prata. Afinal, na Ópera não há limites para o imprevisto! Público-alvo: crianças dos 6 aos 10 anos. Bilhetes à venda brevemente (8,00 € por bilhete, sessões para famílias). Informações e inscrições: [email protected]. Organização: Cascais Ópera, com o apoio da Câmara Municipal de Cascais.
