Imagined and conceived by renowned artist Tita Maravilha, activist of multiple causes, inventor of universes. A Brazilian transvestite woman or the legend of the Pau Brasil girl. Actress, singer, performer, clown and DJ.
This is an intercultural, community creation project, focusing on certain bodies-identities (namely, those of trans, queer and non-binary people, women and racialised peoples), and dedicated to the creation of alternative narratives that potentiate contemporary performance, with a modus operandi well under the scope of the precariousness of these constantly transforming stories.
In Viseu, the festival features the participation of Herlander, Carolina Varela and Tita Maravilha.
PERFORMANCEDRAGON SOUPIn a society characterised by excess production and consumption, what place does respite occupy in the reconstruction of our stories? Dragon Soup is a multidisciplinary manifesto that brings us several intertwining fictions reflecting on the pacts established with the past and that need to be renewed in a future to come, yet to be designed.

CONCERTHERLANDERHerlander is a multidisciplinary artist based in Lisbon that has been rewriting the rules of the pop music standard with his original sound. An anti-pop icon, difficult to pin down in a single specific genre, he brings us voices that harmonise with themselves and other particular sounds. Viseu will have the opportunity to listen to songs like "quem diriaiaia", "if you give it to me what's luv got to do with it?..." or "don't get their names out your mouth".

In addition to her own creations, she brings life to "Trypas Corassão" together with the project's other half, Cigarra. On her sets, DJ7 selects the references of an individual and collective trajectory while giving form to the concept of the transvestite-migrant.
