Faces Ocultas
Banda Furiosa
Faces Ocultas – Zeitgenössischer Tanz aus Brasilien
Die preisgekrönte brasilianische Tanzkompanie Faces Ocultas aus Salto, São Paulo, verbindet zeitgenössischen Tanz mit gesellschaftlich relevanten Themen. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Auseinandersetzung mit den „verborgenen Gesichtern“ des Menschen und seinem soziokulturellen Umfeld.
Mit ausdrucksstarken Choreografien, beeindruckender Körpersprache und großer emotionaler Kraft erzählt die Compagnie Geschichten von Identität, Widerstand, kultureller Vielfalt und gesellschaftlicher Veränderung. Neben internationalen Auftritten und Festivalteilnahmen engagiert sich Faces Ocultas in zahlreichen sozialen und kulturellen Projekten.
Moça Bonita – Eine Hommage an Elza Soares
In „Moça Bonita“ würdigt Faces Ocultas das außergewöhnliche Leben und Wirken der brasilianischen Musikikone Elza Soares (1930–2022). Die Choreografie erzählt von ihrem Aufstieg aus Armut und Gewalt zu einer international gefeierten Stimme des Samba, Soul und der brasilianischen Popmusik.
Tanz und Körper werden zum Ausdruck von Stärke, Selbstbestimmung und Widerstandskraft. Das Publikum wird eingeladen, das eigene Potenzial zu entdecken, den eigenen Weg zu gehen und die Kraft und Unabhängigkeit von Frauen zu feiern.
Donos da Terra – Die Herren des Landes
„Donos da Terra“ widmet sich der Geschichte und kulturellen Bedeutung der indigenen Völker Brasiliens. Die Compagnie erinnert an ihre tiefe Verbundenheit mit der Natur, ihre reichen Traditionen und ihren kulturellen Reichtum.
Gleichzeitig erzählt das Stück von Kolonialisierung, Unterdrückung und dem bis heute andauernden Kampf um Rechte, Identität und kulturelle Selbstbestimmung. Eine kraftvolle Hommage an die indigenen Gemeinschaften und ihren ungebrochenen Widerstand.
Banda Furiosa
Erfahren beim Spiel sowohl auf der Bühne als auch direkt im Publikum nimmt Banda Furiosa jedes Jahr an großen Veranstaltungen wie der IFA, dem großen Berlin-Marathon, dem Internationalen Kinderfest, dem Karneval der Kulturen, oder der „Fete de la Musique“, teil.
Mit ihren originellen Musik- und Tanzeinlagen sorgt die Band für beste Stimmung. Ihr leidenschaftlicher Spaß am musizieren ist überwältigend und überträgt sich auf das Publikum; ihre Animation bringt die Leute zum Lachen und Mitmachen.
Da die Band ohne elektrische Verstärker und Anlagen auskommt, können sich die Musiker frei im Raum bewegen und an verschiedenen Orten spielen und somit das Publikum direkt erreichen.
Die Gruppe spielt Samba, Afro-Brasil und Samba Reggae mit einer Besetzung von sechs bis zwölf Musikern.

Faces Ocultas
Banda Furiosa
Faces Ocultas – Contemporary Dance from Brazil
The award-winning Brazilian dance company Faces Ocultas from Salto, São Paulo, combines contemporary dance with socially relevant themes. The focus is on the exploration of the "hidden faces" of humanity and its socio-cultural environment.
With expressive choreography, impressive body language, and great emotional power, the company tells stories of identity, resistance, cultural diversity, and social change. In addition to international performances and festival participations, Faces Ocultas is involved in numerous social and cultural projects.
Moça Bonita – A Tribute to Elza Soares
In "Moça Bonita," Faces Ocultas honors the extraordinary life and work of the Brazilian music icon Elza Soares (1930–2022). The choreography narrates her rise from poverty and violence to an internationally celebrated voice of Samba, Soul, and Brazilian pop music.
Dance and body become expressions of strength, self-determination, and resilience. The audience is invited to discover their own potential, forge their own path, and celebrate the power and independence of women.
Donos da Terra – The Lords of the Land
“Donos da Terra” is dedicated to the history and cultural significance of Brazil's indigenous peoples. The company recalls their deep connection with nature, their rich traditions, and their cultural wealth.
At the same time, the piece tells of colonization, oppression, and the ongoing struggle for rights, identity, and cultural self-determination. A powerful homage to indigenous communities and their unbroken resistance.
Banda Furiosa
Experienced both on stage and directly in the audience, Banda Furiosa participates each year in major events such as IFA, the great Berlin Marathon, the International Children's Festival, the Carnival of Cultures, or the “Fete de la Musique.”
