This weekend, the 10th and 11th, the FRANKENSTEIN rock opera, by composer Alberto Heller, returns to the CIC stage with the Camerata Florianópolis in symphonic formation. With a libretto adapted from the work of the same name by Mary Shelley (a book that celebrated two hundred years since its publication in 2018, the same year in which the show premiered), FRANKENSTEIN sets out to rescue the tragic and existential dimension of the original – thus distancing itself from the film adaptations. Tickets, at popular prices, can be purchased here and at the Camerata Florianópolis headquarters. | Image credit: Toia Oliveira.

MOTHERS DAY

Well-being, self-care, physical gifts or gifts that stay in your heart. Mother’s Day, celebrated next Sunday (12), is a date that may be destined to show the love for mothers with gifts, a lunch together – in which she does not cook -, trips to special places or even the memory she left behind. Even if it is to, in a certain way, reconcile with your mother, find that space out there and make that move. Reconnecting with her can be transformative. In Florianópolis and several other cities in Santa Catarina, there are several promotions to guarantee pampering and programs to enjoy together. Make the best of it and Happy Mother’s Day! | Image credit: Diógenes Pandini.
