‘Gemma Brockis is startlingly talented — she has a bracing realness that is impossible to look away from. I can’t think of any role she wouldn’t make 100 times more interesting with her complexity and that incredible face.’
(Miranda July)

Gemma has just finished performing with Complicité in their new show - Drive your Plow over the Bones of the Dead - on international tour, and more recently, in the brilliant new improvised immersive show, The Manikins.

She began her career as a founder of Shunt & created central roles for all (devised) shows, including those produced with the National Theatre. Her work as a writer/performer has toured internationally.

On screen, she starred in award-winning feature, No Light and No Land Anywhere by director Amber Sealey. She has appeared in numberous fine art filmworks for Turner Prize winner, Tai Shani.
