About
Vini Carvalho has been investing on developing a 'mime physicality' in his theatre practice since graduating in Performing Arts from UNICAMP (Brazil) in 2010. He had the opportunity to study Neutral Mask and elements of Noh Theatre with Alice K, besides working with her as a performer in different theatre projects; he has also discovered the art of the Classic Clown with Leris Colombaione; the Grotesque character and the Physical action with Roberto Mallet; Commedia dell'Art with Tiche Viana and Esio Magalhaes and, finally, Corporeal Mime with Thomas Leabhart; and with Corinne Soum and Steven Wasson who Vini studied and performed with. Currently, he lives in London working as a freelance performer, workshop leader, teacher and directing his recently formed company, Fool's Cap Theatre, with which he was awarded with a grant from the Arts Council England to create his solo-show "The Unparalleled Adventure of one Hans Pfaall".
