Aldo Brincat Productions

Inspiring and up-skilling young adults across the world

Brincat’s primary career in the performing arts, was founded under the tutelage of the legendary Jacques Le Coq in Paris in the late 80’s, after which, Brincat toured Scandinavia and Russia as a freelance ballet dancer. Upon his return to South Africa, Brincat established Brincat Productions, an ad-hoc theatre company which focused on original, socio-political work, community theatre initiatives, and site-specific activations.  During this time, Brincat received an invitation to perform for His Excellency, Nelson Mandela, on his birthday in 1997; and an invitation to showcase his environmental theatre work, Woza Waste Water, at the World Bank in Washington D.C., in 2000. In 2006, Brincat emigrated to Gaborone Botswana, where he took up the position of HOD (arts) at Maru-a-Pula Secondary School till 2017. In 2007, he was commissioned to write a theatre piece, Light, for Ian Khama to celebrate his accession to the Presidency of Botswana. Brincat has been nominated for, and won, several theatre and community initiative awards, and was voted by the Mail & Guardian (SA), as among The Top Five Stage Performers of the Decade, 1999 – 2010.  Brincat’s theatre career served as the foundation for his recent  expansion and immersion into the visual arts. In 2018, his epic photography exhibition, Foreign Nationals, was invited to the Brunei Gallery at SOAS, at the University of London. Brincat has since completed his postgraduate degree in Fine Art at UCT’s Michaelis School of Fine Art (with a Distinction), and a Master’s in Visual Arts at Stellenbosch University (Cum Laude).  To date, he has had multiple solo visual art exhibitions in South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, England, India, and recently, Sweden. His solo performance, The Moon Looks Delicious From Here, won The Special Jury Award at the Bitesize Theatre Festival, at Riverside Studios, London in 2024, and The Standard Bank Silver Ovation Award at the National Arts Festival in Makhanda, also in 2024.
