Feijoada is a stew of beans and meat, a typical Sunday meal, a symbol of Brazilian hospitality. Surrounded by musicians, dancers and performers, choreographer Calixto Neto invites the audience to experience the preparation of a feijoada in real time. The aromas of the cooking process mingle with samba dances and songs as well as personal and political anecdotes. What meat at the market is the cheapest right now? Where do the inequalities that characterise Brazil’s society come from? Which bodies are subject to violence? And how else can the story of the national dish Feijoada be told? In this roda de samba, which is a special get-together where people play music and dance in a circle, rhythm and movement become the common language. In bringing his Feijoada to Vienna as a performance followed by a tasting, Neto initiates candid encounters between people and their cultures.
