Enter the dazzling and dizzying world of Lambada is Dead Long Live Lambada, where mystery, intrigue, and South American desire meet. Using the true stories of renowned lambada dancer Braz dos Santos, this is a celebration of the history and rhythm of lambada in Brazilian clubs and later around the world.
Creator and director Pamela Stephenson Connolly says she has been in love with lambada for 12 years after accidentally discovering it when she introduces the plays to each audience at the San Carlos Theater. Connolly was a budding comedian when the sensual dancing style first exploded on the global scene, thus she missed the initial explosion. She’s bringing it back now. Tracing its journey from Brazilian bordellos to international prominence, this show is a murder mystery wrapped in lambada beats. Braz dos Santos, the world’s top real-life lambada dancer who currently resides in Key West, is at the center of this tale. The story, directed by Connolly, emphasizes the dance’s sensuous movements, egalitarian attitude, and joy. It is full of passion, treachery, and a determined spirit.
A native narrator engages you in the action and breaks the fourth wall against the backdrop of a bustling Porto Seguro marketplace. A never-ending stream of balls is juggled by dancers in a Brazilian soccer setting. Playful twists, vibrant costumes, and catchy music abound in this production.
Lambada is no longer alive. Lambada is a tale of the commercialization and subsequent rebirth of art. You can get tickets at keystix.com.
