Jessica Teixeira
Jéssica Teixeira is a multi-artist with a degree in Theatre (2013) and a Master's in Arts from the Federal University of Ceará (2018).
She makes her strange body her main raw material for dramaturgical and scenic research, which led to her first solo ‘E.L.A’ (2019), which is still on the national and international circuit.
In 2024, she is preparing to premiere her second solo ‘MONGA’, in which she intends to continue the mirroring and strangeness between the body of the viewer and the body of the performer. In cinema and audiovisuals, she has acted in the short films ‘Assuming the Earth is flat, I'm all curves and deviations’ (2023), ‘Possa Poder’ (2022), Curva Sinuosa (2021), the feature film Assexybilidade (2023) and the series ‘Os Outros’ (The Others) (2023).

SHOW – MONGA
I'm not afraid of my body. If I was, would you be more comfortable? If a person is afraid of another person, they become capable of doing anything to them. Where does this fear come from? Have you ever wondered where it can lead? I'll tell you right now that I don't trust people who can hide their fears, or those who pretend everything is fine. But I even have friends who are like that. So feel invited! Come along, you'll be very welcome. We have cachaça. It's courtesy of the house.
