| Patati Patatá | |
Patati Patatá is a Brazilian clown duo, with the brand having been active since 1983, and being known throughout Brazil and in a some other Latin countries. In 2010, they launched the Brincando com Patati and Patatá music collection via Som Livre, which was subsequently certified as a diamond record, with over 300,000 copies sold.[1] In a 2018 interview to the Brazilian TV hostess Eliana, Rinaldi Faria, owner of the Patati Patatá brand, stated that there were then six clown duos actively travelling at the same time.[2] Currently, Wagner Rocha (Patati) and Henrique Namura (Patatá) play the duo.
The duo's debut on television took place in 1995, on the Rinaldi Magic Show program, where they were supporting actors and their creator, Rinaldi was the presenter, but the group's first appearance on television, which is recorded, was in 1991.
The 2010s lead clowns of the duo were also invited to be featured at the Rosas de Ouro samba school's parade with the samba-plot (samba enredo) "Unforgettable", at the 2014 carnival in São Paulo.
The brand Patati Patatá is a registered intellectual property of the company Rinaldi Produções & Publicidade Ltda, belonging to its founder Rinaldi Faria. Rinaldi Produções & Publicidade Ltda is a company specialized in the production and dissemination of events and shows for children, with the main focus on promoting the Patati Patatá characters.
Patati Patatá was a program on the station TVE launched in 1980, reprised by several stations and awarded internationally, in 1983 it was shown on SBT and had three albums released with the name "Turminha Patati Patatá"
Then a group of several artists, Patati Patatá was composed by Garota Pupy, Mágica Alacazam, and clowns Tuti Fruti and Pirulito. They found initial success in 1983 with the album No Reino Encantado dos Animais. Now-manager Rinaldi Faria was a magician and presenter for the group. A car crash in 1985, however, ended up killing three of the group's performers; to finish their ongoing tour, Rinaldi and his brother took the place of deceased clowns. The brand then folded its activities.[3]
Rinaldi bought the rights to the Patati Patatá brand in 1989, and started its second iteration, initially replicating the group format. It was soon decided that the focus would be instead on the clown duo, and several DVDs featuring them were released starting from 2003, which progressively drew more attention to their image.[4]
From 2003 to 2006, Paulo Roberto Teixeira and Junior Silvério Rangel played the role of clowns, having recorded the DVDs: No Mundo Encantado, As Histórias Mais Engraçadas da TV and Os Grandes Sucessos, from 2006 to 2009, Flávio Barollo and Rogério Faria interpreted; recorded the DVDs: Na Cidade dos Sonhos and No Castelo da Fantasia.
The duo's breakthrough came with a television debut taking place in 2011, as presenters of the children's program Carrossel Animado broadcast by SBT, shortly after they started to present the program Bom Dia & Companhia on the same station.[5] In 2013, the TV show received a redesign, but ended up being canceled in the same year.
The year of 2014 saw their first international presentations in Europe.[6] In 2015, a new TV show debuted in the Discovery Kids channel, entitled Parque Patati Patatá.
