Musseque is one of the winning projects of the 2nd edition of Projecto CASA, an initative promoted by O Espaço do Tempo, Centro Cultural Vila Flor / A Oficina, and Cineteatro Louletano. 

Musseque before being a piece for four dancers, is home, it is an encounter, it is a way of being.

It is where they left a long time ago and where they return in memory and in body through Kuduro. The bodies are asked for rhythm, precision, and resistance so that a piece of freedom can be found in the turbulence of war. During the Angolan Civil War, Kuduro was a style of music and dance marginalized by many but loved by the people. The four performers on stage are now being asked to continue what was lived and felt by creating a dance of the present through the experiences from the past – that are notforgotten.On stage, the peripheries of Luanda that are home, the speeches that are revolution, and the bodies that are resistance are revisited in a hallucinating rhythm of movements that are resilient to those who continue beyond the war.
