Originally intended as a ballet for the Ballet Teatro Guaira, the story was inspired by the poem of Parnassianist/modernist Jorge de Lima and incorporates music, ballet, opera, circus, theater and poetry. It tells the story of a great love affair between an aristocrat and an acrobat and the saga of the Austrian family that owned the Circus Knieps, and their adventures around the world during the early 20th Century.
Early success saw a tour around Brazil and Portugal, selling over 200,000 tickets to over 200 performances.
The soundtrack is composed by Chico Buarque and Edu Lobo.
