White, non-binary, disabled, and working within the performing arts, Tamsin Malbrand is a theatre-maker, performer and actor whose practice brings theatre, poetry and activist thought into productive friction. Their work attends to the violences produced by structures of domination, crafting spaces in which political analysis and embodied experience become inseparable.Grounded in a distinctly feminist perspective, he conceives artistic processes as journeys, and performance as a ritual of rage and laughter, demanding the full commitment of the body while remaining radically open to uncertainty..

Trained as a lawyer, she began her career working on corporate accountability and the impunity of multinational corporations (the organisation Sherpa) before turning towards the visual arts. In 2019, she left the École nationale supérieure d’arts de Paris-Cergy to devote herself fully to performance and live art. In 2022, he co-founded the company T’as un truc entre les dents. Their recent production, Brûle silence – On m’a nommée io, explores how speech can become a means of survival within histories of intra-familial violence.

Alongside his own projects, he collaborates with a range of theatre and performance companies and collectives, including L’Ortie Ivre, Claap and Nyctalopie.

Since 2019, he has developed workshops with young people, women’s groups, psychiatric service users and residents of care homes, conceiving them as spaces in which personal narratives can be shared and intimate experience transformed into collective and political knowledge through poetry, dance, screaming, clowning and performance. In 2026, she was invited to co-lead a research programmes at the European Hospital of Marseille exploring the experiences of people living with chronic illness.
