Sinopse

This micro performance could be something like: “Mirror, mirror on the wall… no!”. Ai de mim, Ai doeu... is the search for an ephemeral puppet made of clay and hands, which accidentally strips itself from its ego and haughtiness. A lonely character in a landscape of spoils, forced to live in accordance with what they offer it. Company, bumps in the road, fears and better halves. — Trupe Fandanga

Author's bio text

Trupe Fandanga was born in Porto in 2014, under the direction of Sandra Neves, making its first performance in a WIP of the Festival Internacional de Marionetas do Porto that year with Botequim. It intends to be a research space in the construction and manipulation of puppets and objects. He works with puppets outside the conventional space of representation and has a special fondness for intimate and small-scale shows. In addition to Botequim, A Trupe premiere in 2019 the puppet micro-show Onirotóptero, which follows the line of lambe-lambe theater. In 2021, they premiere Qubim, which circulates through the main puppet festivals at national and international level. In 2023, they premiere Ai de Mim, Ai do Eu!, their fourth creation.
