“Encontro Normal com a Diferença” was an initiative promoted by Companhia Clara Andermatt and the Grupo Dançando com a Diferença, that took place between 2014 and 2019.
It was organized as a residency, with an intensive programme in which twenty creators and interpreters, with our without disabilities, mainly from the area of Dance, but also from other disciplines - music, theatre, video, performance and literature - were invited to experience, observe and reflect about different forms of expression, communication, and artistic creation. Each edition had a central subject matter which gave structure, as well as a framework for the discussion.
Along the years, “Encontro Normal com a Diferença” took place at ACCCA’s studio (Lisbon), at MUDAS - Museu de Arte Contemporânea (Madeira island), at Teatro Viriato (Viseu) and at O Espaço do Tempo (Montemor-o-Novo).
