CURATORY OF THE International Festival of Theater, Stage & Street of Belo Horizonte - FIT BH 2022
Outra Margem was part of the curatorial team for the Belo Horizonte International Theater, Stage and Street Festival – FIT BH 2022, with Andreia Duarte in partnership with professor and researcher Marcos Alexandre; and actress, director and teacher Yara de Novaes.
The curatorial proposal was to bring reflections on the diverse and plural faces of “Brazils” and “Latin Americas”. This edition of the festival intended to reflect on memory as a knowledge that positions identity and struggle, strengthening black, indigenous, feminine, transgender movements in a political aesthetic discussion.
