Having an Idea

Fazer Ideia – BONS SONS Skip to content © João Pádua 07.08.2026Fazer Ideiade João Grilo & Inês CamposPalco MPAGDP - largo17:40 A cycle of multidisciplinary performances (site-specific) designed to inhabit unconventional spaces. Between text, choreographed gestures, lip sync, live music and symbolic actions, it proposes a social choreography where audience and performers, in dialogue with the place and the context, share time, listening and presence. They reflect on collective work, shared desires and delicacy as a force, often structured around diary-like texts in the form of a letter, in a continuous gesture where body, sound, text and action intertwine in a practice of transformation and shared imagination. From the invitation to activate the works (Não) Ligar Arco-Íris and Abrir janelas à pedrada by Fernanda Fragateiro, Grilo and Inês launch a cycle with the pieces Fazer Ideia no1 and no2, with variable duration, audience participation and no defined front. João Grilo and Inês Campos have been collaborating since 2017 in the creation of different artistic formats and objects between choreography, poetry and music, designed for the stage and unconventional spaces. Insisting on a collective discourse for peace and on deliberate slowness as a form of resistance, they reflect on the nature of existence, emotions and human relationships. They explore almost invisible places of sound, comment on the subliminal, place the eyes on choreography to sing and the body on the score to move.
