Set in Salvador in the early 1970s, Domingo no Parque expands Gilberto Gil’s iconic song into a vivid stage narrative where friendship, love and political tension collide. Every afternoon, João, Jozé and their friends gather in the Ribeira neighborhood to play capoeira — a space of joy, ritual and community. The balance is disrupted when Jozé brings João to see a performance by his beloved Juliana, who soon begins attending the capoeira circle herself. Old passions resurface: Juliana once lived an intense romance with João, cut short when he impregnated another woman, Juci. Now pursuing her dream as a singer and active in resistance movements against Brazil’s military dictatorship, Juliana becomes both the emotional and political catalyst of the story, drawing the characters toward an inevitable confrontation.

Lincoln Center Theater’s new Kenny Leon production of Gian Carlo Menotti’s AMAHL AND THE NIGHT VISITORS, presented in association with the Metropolitan Opera, is hardly “A Charlie Brown Christmas” or “The Nutcracker.” Yet it manages to give us faith, hope and charity at a time we could all use more than a little of it, though there doesn’t seem to be much of a nod by director Leon to the setting of “The Present” mentioned in the Playbill.
