The Materiais Diversos Festival promotes the meeting of different audiences and imaginaries around the arts (dance, theatre, music and performance) with thought, questioning actuality and fostering cultural participation as a condition for citizenship. Born in Minde, in 2009, it spread to Alcanena and Cartaxo (in 2013) and became one of the most representative projects for programming outside the large centres in Portugal, attempting to think and act from the places it originates. It had been occurring annually until 2017 and became a biannual event starting with its 10th edition in 2019.
From the 5th to the 15th of October 2023, the Festival Materiais Diversos will be in Alcanena and Minde with a program of dance, theater and music shows, installations and conversations. Slowing down and making people, places and processes visible are the mottos of the 12th edition of the festival.
Panda Express is a solo created by the personae Sir Panda and aims to capture the curiosity of children / young people and their families through its unpredictability, revealing multiple scenes drawn from the idea of human emotions. Each scene integrated in this performance is intentionally designed with the intention of (simultaneously) interpreting, promoting emotional intelligence and healthy reflection of different emotions through non-verbal communication, developing their perception.
