by David Sousa Lopes - February 09, 2019

Only in this case, these friends are Bruno Nogueira, Nuno Markl and Filipe Melo, three of the most prominent names in Portuguese comedy, entertainment and music.

by BWW News Desk - June 05, 2018
OPERALIA, the international Opera competition founded by Placido Domingo in 1993, will be presented in Portugal for the very first time this summer. The competition will take place at the Teatro Nacional de São Carlos, which is located in the historical center of Lisbon's Chiado District since its inauguration in 1793. A theatre of extraordinary architectural value and beauty, São Carlos has enjoyed a long prestigious history interrupted only by the Portuguese Civil War of the 19th Century and the repairs it sustained in the 1930s. It has welcomed numerous notable international artists, including Maria Callas, Alfredo Kraus, Monserrat Caballe and Placido Domingo, who made his debut in Lisbon in the title role of Verdi's Otello in 1989. The Teatro Nacional de São Carlos now welcomes the 26th Edition of the prestigious OPERALIA competition from August 27th to September 2nd, 2018. The competition will feature 40 competitors from 24 different countries, including two Portuguese singers.

However, there is a school group that needs to be mentioned as the one with the boldest choices: Primeiro Acto's ETM.
BWW Review: Let TERRA DOS SONHOS remind you that dreams are what keeps us alive and book your tickets now!
by Carlota Costa - March 31, 2018

How can a mother and a father deal with the fact that their 10-year-old girl has a disease that is potentially fatal? How can a 10-year-old girl deal with watching her best friend pass away while feeling guilty of her parents' sadness? All of these scenarios could be heartbreaking. And all of these scenarios are displayed on TERRA DOS SONHOS - O MUSICAL. However, if you asked anyone that just watched the show about how they were feeling, you can be certain that all of them would say at least one of the following words: hopeful, grateful or inspired.
