Joan Gràcia was born in Barcelona’s Poble Sec in 1957. He worked as a bank clerk, participated in motorcycle races… but one day he discovered show business and decided to leave everything behind and devote himself 100% to the performing arts and to Tricicle.

In addition to Tricicle he has produced two wonderful daughters, some zarzuela, shows for Tricicle’s clone company Clownic, and some scripts for very short shorts.

He has designed costumes for operas and bikinis for beautiful women, and above all, he has generously gained weight thanks to the fact that he is a lover of gastronomy, especially Argentinian cuisine. He is currently the creative director of Grupo Pachá and artistic director of the Cabaret Lio Ibiza Restaurant.

When he grows up he wants to be a movie and theater spectator, but only a spectator, not a critic, not an actor, not a producer, nor a director.
