DRAMATICA

Dramatica is MixBrasil’s performing arts section with queer themes. It has existed since 1999 and has taken many forms. It began as N.EX.t Mix, curated by Celso Curi. In 2005 it took its current name, with staged readings curated by Ferdinando Martins. In 2010 it continued as a recap of productions that had been on stage, curated by João Federici. From 2018 to 2022 it selected works from artistic residencies, in partnership with the Centro Cultural da Diversidade, curated by André Fischer and Vanessa Bruno. Between 2023 and 2025 (except 2024, when it did not take place), it brought together projects in development by invitation. In 2026 it presents seven projects: three adaptations of literary texts, two selected from the projects of the 7th Ocupação iBT and two by invitation. Performances take place at BMA and iBT, with support from the Goethe-Institut.
