On the 3rd of February at 9:00 pm, the Lafões.Cult.Lab space of Binaural Nodar in the Municipality of Vouzela will host the theatre performance “Contos de Baco” (“Tales of Bacchus”) by Teatro Regional da Serra do Montemuro, part of the Networked Cultural Programming of the Comunidade Intermunicipal Viseu Dão Lafões.
“CONTOS DE BACO”
“À frente de Baco ou ATRÁS DE TODOS OS DEUSES” (“Ahead of Bacchus or BEHIND ALL THE GODS”)
Religion or agronomy, economics or chemistry, philosophy or medicine, painting or biology, geography or business management, history or physics, anthropology or botany, literature or politics…, all fields of thinking, creating, knowing and knowing how to do that fill Life have something to say about WINE.
An object of ideas and knowledge, artistic practices and technical performances, wine can — itself — become the subject of the gaze we build upon that very Life (it is no longer he who speaks; it is the wine…).
Creature and creator, tool of leisure and business, magical and prosaic, sacred and profane, serious and playful, wine is the protagonist of a dialogue between a philosopher and a winemaker who, through a virtuous, spiritual and spirited (dramatic…?) act of oeno-alchemy, end up converting/seducing one another.
