«Adamastor» – Nuvem Aquarela

11th of May | 8 p.m. | village streets

The giant “Adamastor” invokes our collective memory to the boldness, to the breathtaking spirit that characterizes us as a Lusitanian people.

It is this memory that the artists intend to reenact with the puppet "Adamastor", a striking figure with 4 meters of height that begins the performance prostrated on the floor, as an obstacle, like being unknown.

Show promoted by the Associação Nuvem Aquarela. The entity which has as its purpose the creation, promotion and dynamization of activities associated with the puppet theatre, aimed at the dissemination and promotion of this scenic art in the regional and national society and culture, as well as to contribute to the disclosure of the culture of the people of Madeira through this stage art.

«Aurora» - Nuvem Aquarela

11th of May | 10 p.m. | village streets

Maria Aurora, a unique female figure in Madeira, “cultural animal” with poetry in her hands and in her gaze, is the inspiration for “Aurora” the giant round and hugging puppet that wants to pay tribute to the Woman: the woman-cock, woman-wrapped-in-hand, the housewife, the entrepreneur, the fragile, the imposing.

"Aurora", an illuminated puppet about 3 meters tall, invites us to discover what the dawn is in every woman, in her constant recommencement in the struggle for conquests, but also in her generous and abundant ability to give and be light in the darkness of her and theirs.
