Luiz Henrique Santos Pereira - Teaching-artist, Acting program

Henrique Santsper was born in Sao Paulo in 1994, proudly inheriting the name of his grandfather, a former farmer whose hobby was to play accordion to his family. This genealogical artistry led Henrique to start writing poetry at the age of 8, moving slowly to songwriting at 11 years old, and becoming an actor at 12. He likes to tell stories exploring multiple mediums, such as directing, songwriting and performing, both in theatre and film. Recent acting credits include CANCELLED! (dir. Henrique Santsper), Migraaaaants! (dir. Siavash Shabanpour), Sleeping Beauty: Every Rose Has a Thorne (dir. Doug MacDougall), and TomorrowLove (dir. Christopher Stanton).
