José Leopoldo Pacheco (born Santos, September 21, 1960) is a Brazilian actor, director, set designer, makeup artist, and costume designer.[1][2] He gained notoriety for playing the psychopathic villain Leôncio Almeida in A Escrava Isaura on Record TV.
In the early 1980s, he studied fine arts for two years at the Armando Alvares Penteado Foundation. However, he dropped out and graduated as an actor from the School of Dramatic Art at the University of São Paulo, where he learned makeup techniques, which he later taught at the Macunaíma School of Theatre in 1985, at the Célia Helena School of Theatre in 1987, and at the Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo in 2002.[1][3]
He debuted as an actor in 1985, in the play "Máscaras," written and directed by Augusto Francisco, a performance that earned him the Governor of the State Award for best actor and the APCA Award for best newcomer. Later, he became involved with the circus-theater group "Nau de Ícaros", where he directed shows such as O Palácio Não Acorda in 1997. And since 2003 he has worked with the São Paulo-based group "Os Fofos Encenam" which seeks to revive the tradition of circus-theater.[4]
