In 1981, she was a part of Nelson Rodrigues’ O Eterno Retorno as well as in Antunes Filho’s version of de Andrade’s novel Macunaima and was one of Filho’s main collaborators for the next two years. She did, however, give up acting in order to pursue a career as a director of theater and in 1983 she directed her debut play that was a reworking to Graciliano Ramos’ novel A Terra dos Meninos Pelados. The play was well-received, which led her to direct more plays, with her most famous productions include the adaptations to Virginia Woolf’s Orlando (starring Fernanda Torres in the title role) and Anton Chekhov’s Three Sisters, Robert Musil’s The Man Without Qualities and Jules Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth. The majority (if it’s not always) of her productions are with her husband the musician Dany Roland. He helps to the sound design and, occasionally, the music itself. In 1997, Lessa along with Roland produced their debut full-length film, which was critically highly acclaimed Crede-Mi which was loosely inspired by Thomas Mann’s novel The Holy Sinner. Lessa as well as Roland are parents to two children: Maria and Clara.

In 2010 she directed an adaptation of Giuseppe Verdi’s opera Il trovatore, which premiered at the reopening of the Municipal Theater of Rio de Janeiro after its extensive restoration process.
