ZURCAROH

The choice was directed to a group that delighted us. Firstly, because the group’s history is almost a novel and the performances that they are able to represent impressed us and certainly many others. Peterson da Cruz Hora is from Santos. In 1996 he started his choreographies at Guaruja and continued his performances as an athlete at the city hall. When I asked what the name “Zurcaroh” means, I hadn‘t even paid attention that it was the choreographer‘s surname backwards. In 2007 he had the opportunity to perform in Austria. The career launched and in 2009 he settled there definitively.

They have already performed in several prestigious places such as in front of the Pyramids of Giza or for the British royal family, prince William and duchess Kate.

Or other important events in Monaco and Las Vegas. As the group consists of 80 people, we asked how many different nationalities participate at the same time. They are 8: Brazilians, Russians, Germans, Austrians, Swiss, Finns, Americans and Italians. We were curious to know whether the choreographies were all from the group or they had external choreographers. We got even more impressed when we learned that all the choreographies have the same authorship: Peterson da Cruz Hora, our guest. We also asked about the values of the Zurcaroh group, and Peterson explained that many presentations are made for social projects. The dancers are professional dancers In the next projects, they will still present for corporations, make openings of galas of companies, resorts... sometimes with the complete group, sometimes with smaller groups, it can vary from 20 to 80 members.

And at the conclusion of this interview an inevitable question: and for the future? The dream is the limit. After all, for those who left a small city and won the world, how can we see limits, right? The Zurcaroh Group will still surprise us with acrobatics, dances and images that make us dream about them for a long time.

In the next projects, they will still present for corporations, make openings of galas of companies, resorts... sometimes with the complete group, sometimes with smaller groups, it can vary from 20 to 80 members.
