Tess Branchflower

After my musical theatre degree I have worked steadily with the Australian Shakespeare company as well as independent artists and creatives. To further fulfil my creative hunger, I have continuously written and produced my own work with my most recent production being nominated for two awards at Melbourne Fringe festival. I am a jack of all trades and come from a background where you were expected to pitch in, do the work, and then ask if there's anything else to be done. I appreciate having that discipline and work ethic of roll your sleeves up and get on with it. It's helped me abundantly. Aside from performing I teach fitness classes and also assist with recipe testing for a professional baker/cook. Safe to say I am a very "yes, and?" person.
