Chico Pelucio from Grupo Galpao

The next day I visit Cine Horto, the young people, community and training arm of Grupo Galpao. There is a whole range of theatre arts activities, from writing to acting and design.  This year's cohort of students are touring an adaptation of Shakespeare's Um Sonho de Noite de Sao Joao ( a version of A Midsummer Night's Dream).  There is an annual festival of work from companies all over Brazil. The resultant texts are published in anthologies.
