Brazilian actor (born 1964) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aílton Graça (born September 9, 1964) is a Brazilian actor, scenographer, ballet dancer and clown.[1][2]
Aílton Graça was born in São Paulo.[3] For a long time, he worked as a street vendor and is passionate about carnival. Being the son of a hospital porter and a housewife, he was raised on the outskirts of São Paulo, in the Americanópolis neighborhood. While still at school, he fell in love with dramaturgy, a time when he acted in several amateur plays.[4]
Before becoming a professional actor, he was a stock inspector,[4] a market stallholder and also worked as a shoe store salesman. Aílton was a public servant in the State of São Paulo when he was approved and sworn into a public competition for the State Public Servant Hospital. In this hospital, there was a leisure project for patients, created by some actors from the USP School of Dramatic Arts, participating and acting in various group actions.
In 1985, Aílton graduated from the Vocal Workshop at the Centro Cultural de São Paulo and later studied circus techniques at the Circo Escola Picadeiro. From 1986 to 1988, he was a student of Antunes Filho and rehearsed two plays from the group's repertoire: Macunaíma and A Hora e a Vez de Augusto Matraga, but was never cast in any of them.[5]
In 2002, he was master of the room and front commission choreographer of the samba schools Gaviões da Fiel and União Independente da Zona Sul. The following year, he debuted in cinema as the character Majestade, commander of drug trafficking within the prison, in the film Carandiru.[4]
In 2005, he debuted on television in the soap opera América, as Feitosa. After this soap opera, he also acted in the programs Cidade dos Homens, A Diarista and Retrato Falado. In addition, he participated in Cobras & Lagartos playing the comic Ramires and also appeared in Sete Pecados.[5]
In December 2007, Aílton replaced Lázaro Ramos at the end of the São Paulo season of the play O Método Grönholm.
In December 2019, Aílton took over the presidency of one of the oldest samba schools in the São Paulo Carnival, Lavapés.[6]
