Finally

Hello to you all. This is the english version of my portuguese blog http://tuquetragonossentidos.blogspot.com, and in here you'll be able to read about my life as a gruelling portuguese artist, beginning his career.

But first, let me introduce myself. My name is Nuno Catarino, I’m 30, and after going through many lives, many new beginnings, from reading tarot cards to working in marketing management, I realised, after spending a year and a half in London, studying the Cultural Industries, what should have been obvious from the beginning: I can only be happy on stage, performing.

I’m working on my first album, a mix of Lisbon’s fado with African beats, Indian rhythms, and South American flavours, and on an ongoing theatre career, initiated last year with the musical “Le Club Chez Moi” which was co-written, co-produced, and performed by a wonderful group of people, whom I love very dearly. Our next play will be called “Vida Fácil” (“Easy Life”), and we plan to open in mid 2008.

Please, feel free to come back to read about my adventures, and my thoughts on having an artistic career.
