About me

View profile
I'm Rita Pinheiro, a Portuguese Actress with over 20 years of professional experience both on stage and screen.
Acting is such an enriching thing because it allows me to explore the world through others eyes.
In the Portuguese entertainment industry, I wear many hats. I also work as a singer, writer and theater director.
I really believe that I can make a difference with my work, that´s is why I’m currently working on Theater, a Monologue I wrote after interviewing sex works called “Camaleoa. From the body to the Manifest”, and I’ve been working across Europe. Funding is on the way for my new theater project about mental illness. I´ve had TV roles, film projects and short films.
Traveling is one of my passions and for that reason I speak English, Spanish, French and Italian.
I love sports and my dog is essential, my best friend.
I look forward to expanding horizons, possibilities, and work abroad.
