VdA Vieira de Almeida, VdA Academia and the Vasco Vieira de Almeida Foundation have launched the first Theatre Group in a Portuguese law firm.

VdA Academia, whose mission is to develop competencies, particularly soft skills, will have a central role in this project, as will the Vasco Vieira de Almeida Foundation, which works to promote Culture in all its expressions, with a focus on art, music and literature, as well as raise awareness about the value of cultural diversity and importance of respect for multiculturalism.

Our lawyers and staff members were challenged to participate in this innovative initiative, which will allow them to develop new skills and specific knowledge in the field of theatre (textual interpretation, voice placement and projection, diction, occupation of the performance space, dynamics of movement and improvisation). This initiative will culminate in a play that will be prepared throughout the year by the participants.  

The VdA Theatre Group will be led under the artistic direction of Luís Moreira, a professional actor trained at the ACT Acting School and Artistic Director of the Filho do Meio performance art collective.
