Cia Baiana de Patifaria, Comedy theater troupe in Salvador, Brazil
Cia Baiana de Patifaria is a theatrical troupe in Salvador that creates comedy productions for audiences looking for humorous entertainment. The group performs regularly at Teatro Módulo and presents its work primarily in Brazilian Portuguese.
The troupe was founded on June 4, 1987, and premiered its first production 'Abafabanca', which had a long run on stage. This beginning led to the group becoming established in the local theater scene.
The troupe performs with an all-male cast where actors play both male and female characters, continuing a traditional form of theatrical expression. This approach shapes how the stories unfold on stage and reflects long-standing local theater customs.
Shows are performed primarily in Brazilian Portuguese, and the theater maintains a regular schedule of performances throughout the year. It helps to check ahead for upcoming show dates, as the program can change seasonally.
