Peça de Teatro - Pedro Cardoso em: Os Ignorantes
Peça de Teatro - Pedro Cardoso em: Os Ignorantes
**Sinopse:** “Os Ignorantes” é um espetáculo sobre a ignorância que a pessoa tem de si mesma. O texto foi inspirado num suposto cordel intitulado “Os Ingnorante”, de suposta autoria de José de Oliveira. A história é simples: Filho único, criado só pelo pai, é atingido por uma bala perdida disparada do bar em frente à casa onde mora. O comportamento dos personagens envolvidos neste incidente revela ignorância deles a respeito de suas mais profundas motivações. O destino do menino passa a ser determinado pela ação das pessoas ligadas à ele, sem que elas tenham consciencia de que suas atitudes estão subordinadas a regiões de suas psicologias sobre as quais elas não têm nenhum controle, e nem tão pouco, conhecimento disto. Ainda que o fato em torno do qual se desenrole a trama seja um tragédia, a peça é um comédia leve, no estilo quase de uma comédia picaresca; que antes dá lugar a brincadeira própria do teatro que a pretenções de profundidade intelectual. “Os Ignorantes” é essêncialmente um divertimento para todos, tendo como assunto esta caracteristica do ser humano que é ignorar-se a si mesmo em alguma medida; qual seja: ignorar que se ignora. **Ingressos a partir de R$55 no Uhuu! (ingresso + taxas)** **Host comprou ingresso para o assento Balcao Nobre-D-1** **Link para compra de ingressos** (selecionar a sessão do dia 18/03 as 21h): https://uhuu.com/evento/sp/sao-paulo/pedro-cardoso-em-os-ignorantes-15708 \- Duração do espetáculo: 80 minutos \- Desconto para clientes Bradesco \- Classificação: 14 anos Serão todas/todos muito bem vindos. *xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx* *É novo no grupo?

Get your Japanese Curry and Ramen fix at Karé Bar in Chantilly!
Get your Japanese Curry and Ramen fix at Karé Bar in Chantilly!
Join us for the fabulous curry, ramen, and more at ***Karé Bar*** in Chantilly! ***From Northern Virginia Magazine:*** Some of the best dishes in the world are fairly recent innovations. The Vietnamese banh mi, for example, appeared only in the 1950s thanks to the introduction of the French baguette in Ho Chi Minh City and the innovative thinking of the Le family. Japanese curry is a bit older, tracing back to the late 19th century, when British sailors enchanted with well-spiced Indian sauces brought those traditions back to another part of Asia. Eventually, Korea also created its own adaptation of the thick, flavorful gravy. Score another one for the global food community. Actually, score two. Kare Bar opened in Chantilly on Metrotech Drive, making it easy to head to Shilla Bakery or Chateau de Chantilly after lunch or dinner. Score three? Of course, I wouldn’t be keeping score at all if the food weren’t excellent. It is, as is the caring service and bright atmosphere. Start with something uniquely Japanese like monkfish liver with ponzu or a grilled hamachi collar, or stick to an old reliable like the juicy chicken or seafood dumplings, united by a crispy lacework of fried skirt. I tried both the Japanese and Korean curries. The latter is labeled as “spicy” on the menu, but didn’t seem to have any more heat than the Japanese curry. I recommend sticking to the Japanese sauce for its more robust flavor. Order it with the meaty, crispy donkatsu (pork cutlet curry) or the hamburger steak curry, essentially a well-seared dish of Salisbury steak. Whichever curry you order, it will come with sticky rice topped with a crisp-edged over-easy egg and a slew of veggies, ready to be drenched in curry. A shredded cabbage salad is bathed in an exceptionally appealing creamy sesame dressing. As winter sets in, there are few more fulfilling meals than a rib-sticking curry. This is the place that will keep you feeling like there’s no need to hibernate. Check out menu [here](https://karebar.com/our-menu/) **WAITLIST:** Meetup does not allow a waitlist for paid events. If this event fills and you are interested in adding your name to the waitlist, please send host a message through the app. To enhance the opportunity for great conversation, we would like to keep the group small. Please feel free to sign-up to meet us along with up to 2 friends. In the future, we will vary the days of the week, geography and the cost of restaurants so that we can attract many different types of diners. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE COMMITTED TO GO WHEN YOU RSVP FOR THIS EVENT. In the event our group incurs a fee for no-shows / late cancellations, your ability to RSVP for future events will be restricted. Thank you in advance for your understanding.Feel free to make suggestions for future meet locations. All diners will have their own tab to avoid any confusion. \*\* The small non-refundable registration fee helps us share the cost associated with Meetup platform ($360/year) and reduces the likelihood of no-shows, allowing us to better plan our events and accommodate attendees. Thank you in advance for your understanding!\*\* If you are unable to join us in March, we hope you'll stay interested and join us for a meal in the future. Looking forward to seeing you at Karé Bar in Chantilly!
