3rd International Brazil Theatre Showcase - WHEN WE LOVE

Thursday 29 October – Saturday 31 October

Teatro Gil Vicente, Cascais

Synopsis A large samba circle forms to the sound of Arlindo Cruz's songs to tell stories of love, encounters, misunderstandings and new beginnings. With each song, a character takes the center of the circle and reveals a bit of their life, composing a gallery of figures who could be on any street corner, backyard or samba circle in Brazil. Between humor and emotion, an ex-couple appears who still live between anger and desire, Naldo and Janete, the fun 'Casal Sem Vergonha' (Shameless Couple), and Ruy and Solange, who discover that 'Ainda é Tempo Pra Ser Feliz' (It's Still Time to Be Happy). There are also loves that come to an end, relationships that resist wear and tear, and young people willing to change their lives to live a passion. Stitched together by hits like 'O Show Tem Que Continuar' (The Show Must Go On), 'O Que É o Amor' (What Is Love) and 'Chegamos ao Fim' (We've Reached the End), the stories transform samba into drama and celebrate love in its different forms. Because, even between pains and farewells, when we love, we shine brighter than the sun.
