The theme Pessoa by Bethânia is the recreation of Caeiro's verses from the performance Rosa dos Ventos- O Show Encantado (Compass Roses - The Enchanted Show), having Maria Bethânia as interpreter. The corpus is the "Poem VIII" from Alberto Caeiro, Fernando Pessoa's heteronym, extracted from the work O Guardador de Rebanhos (The Keeper of Sheep) (1911 - 1912), transformed into a dramatic-musical script, made as a performance during the Compass Rose show.

On the other hand, the "Poem VIII" had lost, in the performance, its desecrating aspect, the high and ironic critic level of dogmas' Church, like the Caeiro's poem presents in the original version. In addition to the concepts of voice, performance, text and work of Paul Zumthor, the concept of "persona", having as a starting point Renato Cohen' studies about the performative act, was extremely important for the analysis of the dramatic-vocal performance of the interpreter Maria Bethânia. The comparative analysis between the poetic text and the passage for its performative work can states the validity of the hypothesis, in order to emphasize a new sacralization, now by the interpreter, invested with an aura that puts her in the intimacy of this new baby Jesus making his alive, every time the show takes place, and, as a ritual, sharing him with the public
