Synopsis GOA - Contos em Viagem is the new creation of Teatro Meridional, built from tales, poetry and excerpts of novels by different authors, written at different moments in the history of Goa, Damão and Diu. From a research work that begins in literature and expands to music, movement and the plastic and sensory dimension, the show seeks the historical, geographical and human universe of these territories, where Portuguese was spoken and, still today, residually, is spoken. This is an encounter between Portugal and its own history. A show that honours the Indo-Portuguese communities living today in Portugal, bringing to the stage a heritage that many Portuguese have crossed without knowing, and that many others do not know at all.
