I was just surviving by constantly becoming what other people would value so that they wouldn't see me, so that they wouldn't find me.
Nuno Queimado's path to becoming a professional actor and acting teacher is anything but ordinary. In this episode of 'The Art of Lost & Found', hosted by the ever-inspiring Brooke Estin, Nuno recounts his unconventional journey from studying psychotherapy to landing a role in the acclaimed musical, Hamilton. Growing up in Portugal, Nuno often felt the need to fit in, which left him feeling disconnected from his true self.
His decision to pursue psychotherapy over engineering led him to undergo therapy himself, where he unearthed a deep-seated passion for the arts. Moving to London, he dived headfirst into musical theater, despite being years behind his peers. His dedication paid off when he secured the Alternate Lead role in Hamilton on London's West End in 2018.
This episode explores the profound impact of therapy on Nuno's creative transformation, his experiences with coming out, and how the COVID pandemic shaped his artistic journey. Through candid conversation, Nuno encourages listeners to shed societal expectations and embrace their authentic selves. If you've ever felt lost or disconnected, Nuno's story offers a beacon of hope and a reminder that it's never too late to follow your dreams.
