Adapted rather loosely from the works of the E.T.A. Hoffman.

They identify the Brazilian dance formation Cia Dita as a "search place": exploring and recreating in artistic production the interactions between different languages through dance, video, performance, photography and literature. Founded in 2003, the troop has traveled around the world and all continents with their projects. They call Corpornô (from "hardcore" and "porn") the Cia Dita atomic bomb, supersonic, crossing the sky with a ray of light in the deluded world of Puritans. Corpornô is a fine line between erotica and pornography. Heroes dive into the depths of the human being, incredibly representing what is animal, social, human, and inhumane in each of us. The show premiered in April 2013 and today is the most sought-after performance of the band.
