The true story of José Tanganho, the man of the people who won the first Tour of Portugal on Horseback in 1925. Actors, dancers and horses on stage, with fado and folk music. Performed in Portuguese.

In 1925, the newspaper Diário de Notícias organised the first Tour of Portugal on Horseback. It passed through more than 70 towns, and none of them was Arouca. 101 years later, we are bringing José Tanganho to Arouca.

After O Cavaleiro da Dinamarca, QEC once again turns the arena into a stage, with sets, lighting, video and horses.
