Erudite Ballerina. People’s Dancer.
Lover of the streets, who joined the popular crowd (blacks, natives and mestizos from the rabble), taking the steps of Cachucha and Lundu to Theatro Lírico São Pedro de Alcântara. Acclaimed by young romantics who fought for liberalist ideals in our country. Poets from the city’s cafes and brothels invade the scene, calling with their feet on the ground:
BA-DER-NA!
BA-DER-NA!
BA-DER-NA! Maria do Povo.
Our people applaud you!
