Background
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]
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.
