Sinopse

The mind is a unique place. For instance, we might be in a place, on a street, where four minds come together. And these four minds are, objectively speaking, four distinct places. They walk, run, think, ponder, plan and imagine things, perhaps quite absurdly. The outside world is quite complex. It is full of unsolved puzzles. This performance is made up of heads containing puzzles. Quebra-Cabeças is a performance that combines circus with music and drawing. A performance that is both a book and an exhibition, in which children can experience and cherish forever what they have seen and felt. —  Cláudia Nóvoa / Hipótese Contínua
