for Almada Dance Company
Support for the project design of Ana Macara and Maria João Lopes
Premiered on the 26th of May 2017, at Cine-teatro Academia Almadense, Almada.
Fear, a universal feeling, as overwhelming as it is essential.
It’s part of our daily life and often makes us question our courage.
But there are very different fears, both material and abstract, those that need to be conquered and those that are essential for survival.
"Fobos" is a dive into the unknown, an attempt to understand what frightens us and why it frightens us. It's a Pandora’s box full of the unknown.
Close your eyes. Take a step forward!
This project includes a presentation in schools and institutions, in a version adapted for specific audiences and spaces.
