The Brotherhood: A Theatrical Dive into Masculinity

The performance delves into the complexities of masculine pacts, exploring the origins of brotherhood and its codes—many inscribed in violence and responsible for perpetuating rape and sexual violence as part of its vocabulary. The show does not simplify the theme; it acknowledges the admiration that such brotherhood can evoke when related to art history.

Carolina Bianchi mobilizes theater to articulate reflections on representation and real trauma, power structures in art, and radical poetry, investigating the origins of misogyny and a sexuality in crisis. The piece is part of the Alkantara Festival 2026 and features a cast including Chico Lima, Flow Kountouriotis, José Artur, and others. Attendees can expect a thought-provoking experience that challenges conventional narratives.
