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.
