In 1977 he created the character Tete and formed a professional couple with Luciano Nobre, master of clowns.Later he founded the Department of circus, particularly after the Carnation Revolution. In the sixties turned to go home sad and backward to entertain all audiences. In 1981 the association Chapitô arises as a cultural institution and a non-profit social action to promote gender of the circus. His students began as a child from an orphanage in Lisbon, which aimed to train and reintegrate into society through this office. For this school have passed each year 300 young people, many of them are marginalized or ex-prisoners.
