SUPER-DIVAS #9 | Paola D'Agostino + Luis San Payo

October 4, 2025, 5:30 PM
Entry: €3.50 [monthly membership fee]

What moves poets? Passion sung aloud, of course. But with poets, it becomes more than a session—it becomes a sex-ion. That's why we created this cycle dedicated to super-diva sex-ions. Dinis Lapa and Nuno Moura cast witty remarks into the air, and a divine ray pierces them with the names of Portugal's most expressive poets. All of them are, in some way, connected to music. Prima donnas, super-divas—that's what they are. He, she, or they, of course. Thus, the banquet is served: sessions of sung passion with super-diva poets.
In this ninth session of the cycle, Paola D’Agostino reads some of her poems, drawing from old books and unpublished materials, while Luís San Payo improvises on emergent notes from the ambient noise.
