If there is a more perfect pooch to portray Annie's Sandy than Rufus Stewart, then his humans should produce said canine for an upcoming production of the beloved Broadway musical post-haste. Until such time as that occurs, we are simply going to claim Rufus as the quintessential canine co-star for any number of red-headed moppets singing about "Tomorrow" while palling around with FDR, Frances Perkins, Harold Ickes and others of their political ilk.

'Macunaima', Mario de Andrade's masterpiece, won a new theatrical production by Barca dos Coracoes Partidos Company. The direction by Bia Lessa proposes a reflection on contemporary life, transforming the text into a musical rhapsody. The show is part of the permanent relevance of the most characteristic work of Brazilian Modernism: its ability to still provoke spectators, more than ninety years after its creation. Behind the apparent comedy, we are faced with a tragic character that sums up many of the impasses of contemporary Brazil. After all, Macunaima is, at the same time, an indian and a quilombola who is seen, by force of circumstances, moved to the big city, where everything is different and frightening. He is also a survivor: on returning to his quest, he discovers that he has been decimated. There is no more place for him in the world. Maybe there is no world anymore.
