Setting-out from the meteorological diaries of the American artist Henry Darger, CYCLONE investigates the ascendancy of the meteorological conditions on the human condition: the desire to transform, to create order in chaos, to seek new realities. It stems from an objective observation of atmospheric weather and the binary forecast/event. The cycle of expectation / disillusionment associated with weather forecast is transposed, in accordance with the same principle of dichotomy, to human beings, given that the body is the privileged place for this research: place of destruction and reconstruction.

LAMA Teatro is a structure for artistic creation founded in 2010 in Faro, that has the actor and theatre director João Brites as artistic director.

Pursuing its objectives, LAMA Teatro encompasses all the Algarve as the privileged territory for its artistic production, therefore contributing to the visibility and relevance of the region in the national artistic and cultural panorama.

The diversification of the cultural offer; the bridging of territorial asymmetries; the involvement of communities; the focus on pedagogy; on training and in the development and creation of new audiences for the arts are the central axes of the company’s work.

Lama Teatro has, along its history, established several partnerships with cultural institutions of enormous national relevance: Teatro Nacional D.Maria II, Teatro da Trindade, São Luiz Teatro Municipal, Culturgest, Cineteatro Louletano, Teatro das Figuras, among many others.

Em 2021, LAMA Teatro started “MOCHILA” - Festival de Teatro para Crianças e Jovens (MOCHILA – Theatre Festival for Children and Adolescents), with an yearly edition in the Algarve region.
