Marie Brassard is an author, director and actress. She builds her work on the slopes of our virtual and imagined realities, producing highly innovative pieces of great imagination and maturity that reflect her timeless sense of theatricality and her passionate interest in digital technology.

In 2001, she initiated a solo career, founding her own production company, Infrarouge, and creating her first solo piece, Jimmy. This piece was a major turning point in her artistic career, leading to critical acclaim and to continuous touring over many years.

Since then, working in close collaboration with musicians and visual artists, she has created surreal works of theatre that reveal her virtuoso acting skills and highly innovative approach to video, light and sound design. Blending voice and music, and crossing divergent levels of reality, her productions carry the audience into a world in which the lines between private and public or subject and object, become blurred – a world in which the relationship between humans and technology becomes as intimate as that between the performer and her audience.

Marie Brassard has lately become more involved with projects related to augmented and virtual reality. She also occasionally works with dance artists and sometimes acts in films.
