composer, Performer, COMMUNITY ARTIST

Composer and performer Anna Braithwaite's work is distinctly theatrical in nature, thought- provoking, humourous and unexpected.

“One of the many strengths of Anna’s work are the methods she uses to generate original compositions. In listening to each piece, her presence at each site and the time spent with members of the local community become clear. When the works are then performed in and/or by the local community, an interesting relationship between the composer and the community is created, one that not only allows insight into her working process but one that also builds and strengthens relationships within the community itself.”
