Faith Brandon is a performance artist whose work focuses on playful autobiographical exploration through theatre, comedy, live art and clowning. Faith is a Lecoq graduate and works freelance as a performer, producer and creative facilitator in applied arts settings.

Faith works with personal and found stories transforming them into theatrical and visual work. Fascinated by what is means to be human her creative work unravels both the beautiful and brutal aspects of existence. Often funny, sometimes sad but always playful and curious, Faith’s work embraces new people, views, stories and experiences. At the core of the work is a commitment to exploring humour and what it is to be human.

From the inception of an idea through the improvisation and devising stage to set and prop building all the way to funding, staging, producing and touring the work, Faith has extensive experience of the whole creative process on a variety of projects across the globe.

Collaboration is integral to Faith’s work. She has worked with many artists across genres and created work with theatre companies in Nambia, Indonesia and Spain.
