Benj Foster

After graduating from the Bristol Old Vic’s Made In Bristol Programme in 2019 (Play the Goat), Benj has worked as a theatre maker with a focus on devising-led processes, movement and dance. Benj now develops shows through the Engagement, Heritage and Literary departments of Bristol Old Vic as a performer and facilitator, recently working alongside many Young Company groups and Bristol Old Vic’s adult company, Oi Polloi. Benj is very excited to bring Gurt Haunted to Bristol Old Vic after the journey the group has taken it through.
