With the full consent and support of Adelia, the project began in Rio de Janeiro and marked the reopening of the traditional scenic space Casa de Cultura Laura Alvim, achieving great public and critical success.

Under the direction of Geovana Pires, an Adelia is revealed who often doesn't show herself at the first glance, but it is essentially present in his poetry of flesh and blood. Because of the sacred veil that seems to cover the mark of his work, his particular and open eroticism cannot be seen, your desire and much less your loving availability, your romance, your look under your own skirt and those of your generation, ruled by the image of the Virgin and the extreme repressed desire.

The show features religious and regional music from Minas Gerais, both for the quotes in the poems and for the musicality of his poetics. The musical direction and arrangements are by Carlos Malta, the wind musician known as "the wind sculptor". On stage the multi-instrumentalist musician André Ramos, with saxophone, transverse flute, piano and fife.
