"Void"

I was astounded by the meaningful beauty of the stage sequence of "Void" as it unfolded  ... 

The two brilliant performers incorporated theatre acting, dance, singing and guitar playing and everything else they could, from their long  interwoven rasta hair to the magical ... almost indescribable sound of the olive oil can adapted guitars  to create an atmosphere that easily transported me back to the islands of Brava and São Vicente, I haven't been to since 2001. 

The many who stood up to applaud the performers of "Void"  at the Theatre Viriato in Viseu last weekend, paid tribute to Clara Andermat´s staged work but also to the Cape Verdian culture.
