Do we fill or divide our time? What fits within the same bar?

EM TEMPO starts from questions about time. Do we fill or divide our time? What fits within the same bar? Do we live in times of semibreves or semiquavers? Based on these questions, we develop a work that intertwines dance, music and theater.

We act in search of spreading tap dance as a non-elitist art.

Many years ago, this collective chose to remain in the interior and contribute to the decentralization of artistic productions.
