Blasons + Doesdicon

Teatro São Luiz is hosting a double session, with two performances by the collective Dançando com a Diferença: Blasons, by François Chaignaud, which debuted in 2022, and Doesdicon, created by Tânia Carvalho in 2017.

The first one, Blasons, refers to the blazons (blasons), known as heraldic symbols that identify a family, a city or an organization, but also to the poems referred to by the same word, which first appeared in mid-16th century France.

Regarding Doesdicon, Tânia Carvalho writes: “Composition for designing fixed, not rigid movements. Working the rhythmic contrasts of the body, moving or still. A person walks by… Only not. It’s more than one person. A person here, a person there. What about that one? They were not there earlier. Or were they? They were fixed to a spot and I didn’t see them earlier. Fixed movements are then liberated. Not against those same movements. Not to be erased, but to extend them to. Someone else walked by…”
