www.nirvanastudios.pt This space was the main powder magazine of the old military barracks, which was purchased in ruins by the Custom Circus company in December 2003 through self-financing. By restoring this powder magazine, the company aimed to transform it into its own theater; however, due to constant economic difficulties and extensive itinerant work, its phased construction lasted for 8 years. But believing with perseverance worked miracles! The Custom Café, the mysterious theater that was several times condemned not to exist, finally opened in March 2012 with the show Le Cabaret Rock, an intensive production that received more than 40,000 spectators in 2 consecutive years, thus marking the residency of this troupe of nomadic origin. Its immersion transcends the conventional theatrical space, and the transition of the company's underground imagery to this venue was the result of a genuine story so scenographic that the aesthetics that Custom Circus represented over so many years on the road invade the visitor, from Dieselpunk to Bizarre Chic and Steampunk. The company took care to preserve and exhibit in Nirvana Studios many of the period artifacts from the old barracks, found during their excavations for the reconstruction and consolidation of the ammunition depots, including (deactivated) bombs and numerous industrial archaeological objects. Entry to the venue only with a ticket purchased in advance.
