A multilingual performance that reinterprets Purcell live to revisit the story of Hannibal and the Punic Wars, exploring fear, power, and migration in Europe.

Full details

Synopsis Multilingual show with Portuguese subtitles. Musicians and classical music artists reinterpret Purcell live to revisit the story of Hannibal, the Punic Wars, and the birth of Europe. In the 3rd century BC, the Carthaginian commander Hannibal Barca crossed Spain, France, and Italy in a campaign that shook the foundations of the Roman Empire: Hannibal ad portas. At a time when war once again ravages European soil and refugees continue to die in the Mediterranean, Hannibal takes on a disturbing relevance. The show exposes how fear and the thirst for power continue to shape History, and how myths and propaganda are used to create enemies and justify borders. What does 'civilization' mean when people die at the gates of Europe? Through a unique fusion of opera and slam poetry, contemporary dance and theater, the play opens a window onto the past, present, and future of Europe. In Hannibal, artists from Africa and Europe combine contemporary video and projection with live painting and acoustic instruments, creating a collective, intense, and deeply sensory performative experience. The presentation of this project was made possible thanks to the PROSPERO NEW platform, co-financed by the Creative Europe program of the European Union.

Show original (Portuguese)

Sinopse Espetáculo multilingue com legendagem em português. Músicos e artistas de música clássica reinterpretam Purcell ao vivo para revisitar a história de Aníbal, das Guerras Púnicas e do nascimento da Europa. No século III a.C., o comandante cartaginês Aníbal Barca atravessou Espanha, França e Itália numa campanha que abalou os alicerces do Império Romano: Hannibal ad portas . Num momento em que a guerra volta a assolar solo europeu e os refugiados continuam a morrer no Mediterrâneo, Hannibal assume uma pertinência inquietante. O espetáculo expõe a forma como o medo e a sede de poder continuam a moldar a História , e como os mitos e a propaganda são usados para criar inimigos e justificar fronteiras. O que significa «civilização» quando pessoas morrem às portas da Europa? Através de uma singular fusão entre ópera e slam poetry , dança contemporânea e teatro, a peça abre uma janela sobre o passado, o presente e o futuro da Europa. Em Hannibal , artistas de África e da Europa combinam vídeo e projeção contemporâneos com pintura ao vivo e instrumentos acústicos, criando uma experiência performativa coletiva, intensa e profundamente sensorial. A apresentação deste projeto foi possível graças à plataforma PROSPERO NEW, cofinanciada pelo programa Europa Criativa da União Europeia.
