Branco was the founder of the Portuguese Cultural Centre's Theatrical Group and started a new era in theater on the island of São Vicente.

By introducing a new model in artistic education on the island of São Vicente, he became an indispensable reference to theater in Cape Verde.

In 1990, he performed his first play Quem me dera ser onda, written by Angolan Mário Rui at D. Maria II Secondary School in Lisbon.

The group has made over fifty theatrical productions performing the works of Cape Verdean authors such as Arménio Vieira, Germano Almeida, Caplan Neves, and Mário Lúcio Soura, as well as the works of Camus, Oscar Wilde, Garcia Lorca, William Shakespeare, Victor Hugo, Molière, Beckett, Muller and Alfonso Castelão.

He was invited in 1994 to manage all of the Camões Institute Artistic activities at the Portuguese Cultural Center and Mindelo (Porto Grande) Polo.

He published several articles in journals such as A Nação, Horizonte and Cidadão and contributed in newspapers such as A Semana and the Portuguese Expresso.

In June 2014, he received the Sabino Évora Award of Excellence at the SalEncena International Festival in the island of Sal.
