Starting from her own body, the Brazilian artist tells of Pastrana's 26-year life, marked by exploitation and inhumane working conditions. Teixeira uses her own body as raw material of the dramaturgy, mirrors and exposes the gawkers, and keeps the audience suspended between intimacy, humor and shock. The result is an evening between performance, poetry and live concert, complete with shots of cachaça.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/berlin/events/monga-30560/", "official_url": "https://www.hebbel-am-ufer.de/programm/pdetail/jessica-teixeira-monga/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/b6e3c07c8460970ea4b1227063f1be7f72306f1ebee6de0e74cdeb1b18d76869-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-16T19:00:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "HAU Hebbel am Ufer (HAU2)", "address": "", "tickets": ""}, {"start": "2026-11-17T20:00:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "HAU Hebbel am Ufer (HAU2)", "address": "", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Pos(t)-Monumenta: From Pedestal to Word", "start": "2026-11-17T15:00:00+01:00", "end": "2026-11-17T19:00:00+01:00", "place": "Savvy Contemporary", "address": "Reinickendorfer Straße 17, 13347 Berlin", "price": "", "price_from": "0.00", "price_to": "0.00", "category": "workshops-courses", "tags": ["history/colonialism", "art"], "description": "A laboratory titled Pos(t)-Monumenta: From Pedestal to Word, led by Julián Santana-Rodríguez (Posmonumenta), with participation from Carla Isabel Espinosa Muñoz (Yanakuna / Rematriation Oversight Group) as well as Indy Piapya, Marleny Deli Yalanda Cuchillo and Adriana María Velasco Muelas (Misak Misak).
