Mostra Estufa
Mostra Estufa appears in 2018 as a lab for new creators or emerging projects looking for new contemporary circus languages, aesthetics and dramaturgies. Like a greenhouse [estufa], it aims to provide the optimum conditions to incubate research on forms and contents, and for technical experimentation. This edition comprises new projects, which are either premieres or rather close to their final version. The strong connection with movement, music and visual installation discloses a cross-disciplinary inclination that assimilates circus virtuosity into current aesthetical trends. Technique is at the service of a concept, a thought, an idea. The will to say something further and to question the place of circus techniques in contemporary dramaturgy. — Julieta Guimarães & Vasco Gomes
