O vôo do Colibri

Children’s Musical Show

Who tells the story is Yaku of the Andes, the wise old armadillo. From the mystery of the Nazca lines in Peru, he discovers a hidden figure – the Colibri, who will live an adventure in the city … In his troubled journey, the Colibri takes refuge in reading and is, through it, knows to different Latin American characters, their cultures, and their songs and dances. He lives with an intrepid Gavião from Venezuela, who teaches him to fly with a joropo, with a smart Peixinho from the river, from Colombia, who teaches him to go against a chain with a cumbia wheel, with a vain Galo cantor de son huasteco, Mexico, and with a nice Argentinian Centopeia that invites you to dance a carnavalito, at the carnival party. They will all help the Colibri realize the importance of their existence.
