Lobo-Guará Productions

Why Lobo-Guará?

Lobo‑Guará Productions was born from a childhood moment that never left me. When I was a young girl in Brazil, I found a schoolbook about the lobo‑guará - the maned wolf. I was instantly captivated by this strange, elegant creature: shy but resilient, solitary yet deeply symbolic, moving through the world with a quiet kind of magic. As I grew up, the lobo‑guará became more than an animal I admired; it became a metaphor for the artists, outsiders, dreamers, and storytellers who navigate life with sensitivity and strength. Creating this company felt like returning to that first spark of wonder.

Today, Lobo‑Guará Productions exists to champion stories that walk between worlds - just like the animal that inspired its name. As a Brazilian‑Canadian artist, I build work that blends cultures, genres, and emotional truths. My company is a home for theatre, writing, and multidisciplinary projects that celebrate vulnerability, imagination, and the power of personal narrative. Whether producing plays, developing new writing, or collaborating with other artists, Lobo‑Guará Productions is committed to creating work that feels intimate, magical, and deeply human. This company matters because it carries the mission I’ve had since childhood: to honour the quiet creatures, the overlooked stories, and the voices that deserve a place on the stage.
