Welcome to Changing Faces

Changing Faces Theatre Company is a not-for-profit theatre company - young, vibrant and ready to bring the highest quality of interactive, literacy- based theatre and workshops to primary aged children at your school!

With classroom experience, a passion for language, a little bit of glue and a lot of imagination husband and wife team Nicholas Kessler and Heather Code, who met during their training at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, formed Changing Faces Theatre Company as a direct response to the challenges of teaching literacy in the classroom in the 21st Century.

Changing Faces Theatre Company is a not-for-profit children's theatre company, touring to schools near you! Our goal is for young people to see, hear and feel the power of language, so that words and drama are always LIVE and INTERACTIVE. We present literary tradition with creative inspiration and challenge our audience to do the same.

AS actors we have a unique relationship with language. Our job is to read the words, analyse the text, interpret the meaning, and ultimately to perform the piece of writing as if it were our own. Given that children have completely uninhibited and boundless imaginations, they are the perfect fodder for play, or more specifically: to play with language.
