Ciça, a renowned figure in the samba world, surprised audiences with a double appearance during the Unidos do Viradouro parade, drawing parallels to a similar surprise performance by Ivete Sangalo in 2017. In this year's parade, Ciça joined the front commission, where the storytelling highlighted a character's transformation from a young boy named Moacyr to Ciça, showcasing the deep roots and cultural significance of samba in Brazil's heritage.

The choreography, crafted by the same duo behind Ivete's strategy years ago, Priscila Mota and Rodrigo Neri, presented a creative narrative where Moacyr, surrounded by passionate sambistas, encounters a lion, symbolizing his awakening to samba culture. This moment was a celebration of the artistic collaboration that brings together traditional samba elements with innovative choreography, enriching the parade's theatricality.

Ciça's hidden entrance was cleverly executed, adding an air of mystery and excitement that captivated the audience. This performance not only honors the legacy of both Ciça and Ivete Sangalo but also emphasizes the ongoing evolution of samba within Brazilian culture, showcasing how choreographers and performers continue to push creative boundaries in this vibrant art form.
