The Erê show marks the first performance by the Bahia-based company Bando de Teatro Olodum in Manaus. The play uses the stage to denounce massacres against Black youth that have occurred in various Brazilian favelas since 1990. The group presents the work at Teatro da Instalação while promoting cultural workshops in the city's historical centers.
The Erê Show
The play is political. This production celebrates 25 years of Bando de Teatro Olodum because it seeks to keep the memory of tragedies like Candelária and Vigário Geral alive. The cast includes 16 actors. Lázaro Ramos signed the general conception, so the work maintains a strong character of social protest.
Teatro da Instalação Information
