Cleyde Yáconis

Cleyde Yáconis (14 November 1923 – 15 April 2013) was a Brazilian actress.

Life and career She began her career at Brazilian Comedy Theater (TBC) with her sister, Cacilda Becker. She has a repertoire of varied range of theatrical dramaturgy. Cleyde tends to play characters older than her own, perhaps because of her contralto voice and her features.

She actively participated in theater productions and television. In cinema, she had a meager career with few roles over the half-century she acted. Her last TV role was fun Dona Brigida Gouveia, in the Silvio de Abreu's telenovela Passione, aired by Rede Globo. Among her television work, stand out Mulheres de Areia, Os Inocentes, Gaivotas, Ninho da Serpente, Rainha da Sucata, Vamp and Torre de Babel.

Her most striking role was Isabelle de Bresson in Rainha da Sucata, a bankrupt millionaire who behaved as if she were still rich and did not accept the reality in which she lived.

On September 29, 2009, the former Cosipa Culture Theatre was renamed "Cleyde Yáconis Theatre" in honor of the actress who starred in the first play produced in the house - The Road to Mecca.

In July 2010, she withdrew from Passione, having broken her femur. She came back to production on August 12. Due to complications that had the implant prosthesis in her femur, the actress stayed away from the telenovela recordings for at least 15 days.

Death On April 15, 2013, she died in Sírio-Libanês Hospital where she was hospitalized since March.
