Recent projects:


With the work "Orpheus" , created in 2005 and performed in Parque Lage, Rio de Janeiro, the company dissolved, but the artists continue to work together in new and more independent structures, which involve performance,  teaching, lectures, coaching for actors, leadership coaching in the arts, business, and life, and in ever expanding fields. The core group has been working for more than 20 years and intends to continue to do so, by blurring the borders between the arts and diverse fields.
