The theatre company "Companhia Caótica" features "Crevescer" at Café-Theatre at Campo Alegre, on 16 December, at 3.30 pm.

This performance aims to contemplate the life path of a man, who is not too old but he is not as young anymore, and is dwelling on the continuous process of getting older and ageing. This activity mixes cinema, music and autobiography.

Concurrently, it works a bit like a sequel of "Sopa Nuvem" (2011), because we see the same friends, some years later: António (António-Pedro) and his friend Gonçalo (Gonçalo Alegria). António, now an older man, is preoccupied because he doesn't want to get older. This is something children don't manage to grasp: not wanting to celebrate birthdays.

Caroline Bergeron and António-Pedro founded Companhia Caótica in 2009. It creates performances, workshops and films for young audiences, families and adults alike, in the contexts of theatre, music, film, puppets and visual arts.

Caótica ensures a regular presence on national and international events. Its production "Sopa Nuvem" was awarded the Momix Award in 2014 and the Coup de Coeur at Ourcéanie.
