Sinopse
Astra 8 is a planet on which infinity fits. The beings that live there multiply, metamorphose and symbiotize. The most extraordinary creatures live in the bowels of this body. Some of these beings seem to be made of jelly or plasticine, others are as long as snakes, or are covered in fur that allows them to move around their environment. Some have claws, others have no eyes;, some live in peace with the other beings around them, others start wars that threaten to destroy everything, even the very planet they live on. Most of the time, our planet doesn't even realize that there are living beings living inside it, or even on its surface. Considering the scale of a planet, the largest of creatures can be insignificant. — Costanza Givone / Fogo Lento

Author's bio text
Fogo Lento is a group of multidisciplinary artists who love to travel together to the places where reality and imagination, art and science intersect and confuse. Without very defined roles, its members infect and inspire each other, navigating between the construction of fantastic sets that house a whole world (yet fit into a van), writing stories in imaginary languages, inventing musical instruments, animating objects, and transforming the performers' bodies. They seek to rediscover wonder and magic in the theatre space.
