About

Cléo Diára plays Klió, a pop singer acclaimed by audiences but ignored by critics, who decides to tell her own story as she approaches ten years of her career. Between Yoruba cosmology and mythical figures such as Medusa, Medeia and Lilith, the artist reflects on being a Black Cape Verdean woman in a patriarchal world. The performance is part of Alkantara Festival. It is performed in Portuguese and Cape Verdean Creole with Portuguese captions for Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences and English captions. The 28 November programme includes Clube Espectador, moderated by José Maria Vieira Mendes and Maria Sequeira Mendes. Tickets cost €12; admission is free with Passe Cultura.
