bio

🇧🇷  Olá, bem vindos! Sou um ator brasileiro, e também me aventuro como produtor e professor. Descobri o teatro ainda no ensino fundamental, depois me formei em Direito, antes de entrar de vez no mundo das artes.
Minha formação passou por encontros como o Grupo Tapa e o Centro de Pesquisa Teatral (CPT). Alguns trabalhos marcaram profundamente minha vida: Doze Homens e Uma Sentença, peça que ficou oito anos em cartaz e ganhou o Prêmio APCA de Melhor Espetáculo em 2010, e o longa Tabu, de Miguel Gomes, premiado no Festival de Berlim em 2012, que abriu portas para minha trajetória no cinema.
Meu trabalho solo, baseado na obra do escritor Rainer Maria Rilke, me acompanha há mais de uma década e se tornou um espaço de pesquisa e de encontro, um refúgio para onde volto de tempos em tempos, numa relação com uma performance ao vivo que transcende fronteiras.
 
🇬🇧 Hello, welcome! I’m a Brazilian actor, and I also venture as a producer and teacher. I discovered theater back in middle school, later graduated in Law, before fully committing to the world of theater.
My training was shaped by encounters with Grupo Tapa and the Centro de Pesquisa Teatral (CPT). Some works have profoundly marked my life: Twelve Angry Men, a play that ran for eight years and won the APCA Award for Best Play in 2010, and the feature film Tabu, by Miguel Gomes, awarded at the Berlin Film Festival in 2012, which opened doors for my path in cinema.
My solo work, based on the writings of Rainer Maria Rilke, has accompanied me for more than a decade and has become a space of research and encounter, a refuge I return to from time to time, relating to live performance that transcends borders.
