Balão Mágico was a very famous children television program in Brazil. The children that were the main stars of the program were also part of a musical group singing children's songs which was named after the program as A Turma do Balão Mágico. The program was aired by Rede Globo between 1983 and 1986, and the musical group released six albums under the Columbia label that sold together 13 million copies. Their biggest hit is the song Superfantástico, which is still popular more than 20 years since its release. The main cast and musical group was composed by: ⁕Simony: The only girl in the band. ⁕Tob: The older integrant at the group. ⁕Mike: Son of infamous British robber Ronnie Biggs. ⁕Jairzinho: Son of Brazilian musician Jair Rodrigues. ⁕Ricardinho: the last member of the group.
Directed by Nilton Travesso, Balão Mágico leans on a strong ensemble — Simony, Jair Oliveira, Mike Biggs — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about kids titles of 1983.
