THE LINGERIE RESTAURANT
Read moreJust like in Porto, a glamorous and warm atmosphere awaits us in this restaurant that invites us to a gustatory experience... and visual. Male and female erotic shows take place between the dishes. The public is even put to contribution (at its good will obviously) in games, without the need to understand the language. Waitresses in lingerie and muscular waiters in tight boxers serve traditional cuisine with an international touch. A quality meal with fun and laughter guaranteed in group.
RIVOLI TEATRO MUNICIPAL
Read moreAs its name suggests, it is the theater of the municipality. It was born in 1913 and has undergone several renovations and, more surprisingly, has changed location during the twentieth century. Isabel Alves Costa (deceased in 2009) was the first director of the theater with the name and location that we know today. The program includes theater, dance, classical concerts, circus shows and concert cafes. A rich variety of performing arts to cultivate. And good news: for most of the shows, you don't need to speak Portuguese.
THÉÂTRE DE AVEIRO (TEATRO AVEIRENSE)
Read moreAveiro's theater is one of the city's cultural venues, and it would be a shame to miss out on some of the shows. It's a small auditorium in which plays, dance and music take place, as well as film screenings, readings and everything else related to the artistic world. When you're in Aveiro, take a look at the program on the website, and you're sure to find something to suit your taste.
THÉÂTRES MUNICIPAUX DE PORTO (TMP)
Read moreIf you're looking to see a play (sometimes without many words), a dance performance or a film in its original version with subtitles (very practical for Portuguese speakers, or those wishing to improve their skills), then take a look at the program on the website. No doubt there will be an interesting performance to immerse you in the culture of Portuguese performing arts. It's often engaging, well performed, moving...
CASA DO COMUM
Read moreThe Ler Devagar bookshop has been delighting tourists for years at LX Factory, and now we'll be able to find it again in the heart of Lisbon with the Casa do Comum cultural space. The booksellers have chosen to set up shop in Bairro Alto, on the same street as the theater. This was an old dream of the owner, José Pinho, who died in May 2023. The space comprises a bookshop, library, concert hall and projection room. Of course, there's also a bar area. All events are announced on social networks.
LISBOA EM FADO
Read moreIf you'd like to discover Fado in a way other than at a dinner party, here's something that might interest you. The venue is right in the center, in the Baixa district. The show begins with an introduction to the history of Fado, with a short projection and, of course, Amalia Rodrigues. Then two different singers take to the stage. You can then let yourself be transported to the Lisbon of another era. A nice little extra: a glass of port served at the beginning to get you in the mood.
