According to Cláudio Roberto, the company’s coordinator and choreographer, planning must follow, even if the group has not won first place in the competition.
The show A dream Christmas is one of these projects, which produced and staged by the adult group of dancers will have the participation of child dancers. In its fourth edition, production is in full swing. Cláudio adds that the rehearsals have intensified since August so that the dancers are well prepared for the performances at the end of the year. “We started editing and we are already studying a lot of news, scenography and choreography. The work has intensified and our rehearsals are being focused on the theme of the musical. ”, He said.
This year, Yaguara Kids, the children’s arm of the Company, will have its own musical, Porahontas, with its premiere scheduled for December 13, at Cine Morocco. With the participation of 75 children, aged between 4 and 14 years old, the children’s musical is a reinterpretation of the children’s classic that tells the love story between an Indian and an English conqueror, which makes possible the understanding between different peoples and cultures .
Another activity scheduled by the company is the one year anniversary of the foundation of the dance group Yaguara Bom Jesus, on the 28th of this month. It is an independent group formed by 25 dancers, which initially works only with regional folk dances, to establish it as another regional group from Pará. According to the choreographer, the anniversary will be an opportunity to join two other groups to promote a dance event in that city. “The objective of the event is to bring art and culture, as a way of promoting art in the city that is lacking in culture and that never hosted an event like this, but that is rich in talented young people,” he said.
Later this year, some soloists from the adult and children’s group will participate in a national classical contest in November, in Belém.
