Banco do Brasil presents and sponsors Heart of Campaign

Show of Clarice Niskier talks about the rapprochement of families during the pandemic, of solidarity in the midst of losses and the birth of great friendships

the actress and author Clarice Niskier, that in 2021 celebrates 40 year career, star on stage at Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil Brasília “Campaign Heart”. The play continues Clarice's partnership with Amir Haddad, once again director supervisor. The successful 'marriage' began almost 15 years with the premiere of “The Immoral Soul” (14 uninterrupted years on display), and followed with "The List" and "Hope in the Ping Pong Gum Box".

With the arrival of the coronavirus pandemic, bringing changes and aggravating old problems, one issue drew special attention from Clarice Niskier – the rise of domestic violence. The subject awoke in the actress the urgency of making a counterpoint and talking about the families who became closer, of the couples who started to help each other; the importance of solidarity in the midst of so many losses, from the birth of loving friendships.

The project, sponsored by Banco do Brasil, is on display in CCBB Brasilia Theater from 13 august to 5 September, from Thursday to Sunday, at 8:0 pm, days 21 and 22 August, at 4:30 pm, and extra sessions on the last two weekends, days 28 and 29 of August and 4 and 5 September, at 4:30 pm. Tickets for sale in www.eventim.com.br and cost R$ 30 (entire) e R$ 15 (half). Access the show's program and more information at coracaodecampanha.com

From Clarice's reflections was born the text that presents a couple surprised by the quarantine, in full crisis and imminent separation. They don't run away from conflicts, and this confrontation leads to a renewing silence – both don't want to be “right” anymore, but finding solutions to the problems that have crystallized over time.

“I started to write intuitively, no worries, like a diary. Short talks about the world, the situation of the planet, the indoor experience, with the family, all interconnected. I invited Isio [Ghelman, actor] to read with me through Zoom the opening scenes. We were impacted by reading. We felt that it was 'samba'. From there I decided to write a theater play. There are dozens of short scenes, interspersed with music and silence", Clarice account.
