Denise Stephenson is an actor and writer. She lived for some time in New York City working mostly in Theatre. She has worked across Theatre, Film and TV, recently in Simon Pegg’s SciFi comedy Truth Seekers for Amazon Prime and in Mary Stuart in the West End. In 2011 she retrained in the Lecoq method at LISPA where she discovered clown and bouffon and began to make her own work through writing and improvisation. Her latest solo show Finding Melania   uses Bouffon Clowning to explore the truth behind a famous mask. She is interested in making work that has a political aspect which can be delivered through comedy.
