Theater

Inácia Cruz

Arco-Íris dos Contos is a participatory theater and reading mediation project led by Inácia Cruz that uses theater as an essential tool in promoting reading for children and young people. Through the dramatization of stories for children, whether traditional or contemporary, her aim is to provide a festive atmosphere through the word, provoking sensory explosions that promote illusion and fun and that foster curiosity about reading literary works.

Children's stories

Rui Ramos

Rui Ramos, a native of Porto, geologist, storyteller, award-winning author of short stories and comics, illustrator, trainer and sometimes falconer, Moorish traveler, Renaissance discoverer, pirate, blacksmith and alchemist in historical recreations. A versatile, multi-faceted and improvising juggler, he travels the roads from the north to the south of the country, stimulating the imagination and good mood of children and adults, from 0 to 100 years old, through tales told with musical instruments, very original illustrated books, puppets and more. It travels wherever a story needs to be told, for small groups or large crowds, in a wide variety of venues. She values creating bonds with her audience and believes that through storytelling you can inspire someone to be better. At least, that's what happened to him after he took up this honorable profession as a full-time storyteller.
