The “Voltar à Terra” (Return to Earth, in english) is an environmental play. The goal is to create an artistic space for reflection and awareness related to environmental issues. We would like to travel around the country to share and take in the most diverse and ecological experiences. To make this happen, we need your support!

The storytellers are related to the earth and revives it. This notion about storytelling keeping the planet alive making it a necessity, is the basis of this performance intending to position itself as an environmental self-portrait but also to create a dialogue with the audience to share their experiences.

The actress Anabela Teixeira performs inspired by her personal blog  “Voltar à Terra”, and her engagement in environmental related causes such as FAO - United Nations Food and Agriculture; Greenfest Festival; among others.

The aim is to share, in an artistic and creative way, the actress’ lifestyle and experience related to sustainability.

In addition to that, during the performance the audience’s experience related to environmental issues will be shared, such as: climate change, foods environmental impact, recycling, polution, circular economy, ecology language, cultural ecology...

This exchange of ideas with people during gatherings/workshops are an essential part of the performance.

Thus arises the “Voltar à Terra” as a solo performance, but also as a joint creation, which we intend to bring to parks, other national areas and international as well, as a way to develop this research.

To achieve this goal, we ask for your help and contribution. With the possibility of touring we are sure we can get closer to you, your experiences and traditions.
