Cristina Moura is one of Brazil's most provocative and exciting performing artists. Cristina studied classical ballet and contemporary dance and has been a professional dancer since she was 15 years old working and touring worldwide with different companies from Brazil and Europe. From 1995 to 2002 Cristina Moura lived and worked in Europe. She went back to Brazil in 2002, where she premiered her dance solo like an idiot at the Panorama de Dança Festival Rio de Janeiro. Since then the solo has been presented almost 100 times in Brazil, Belgium, Canada, Chile, France, Germany, Italy, Norway, Portugal, Spain, UK, USA and Uruguay. This will be the West Coast premiere of the production. (Quelle: http://www.sfiaf-archive.org/2008/artists/dance/info.php) egd
