Brittany Lagassé

Brittany Lagassé (she/her) is a multidisciplinary artist and has worked professionally in theatre, music, dance and comedy.

She began collaborating with others professionally in 2013, creating ‘Make/Shift Theatre’ with university pals Kristian Jordan and Elio Zarrillo. They wrote, produced and acted in original plays inspired by mediums outside the realm of theatre, from graphic novels to albums.

As Brittany continued to act and produce original work, her curiosity and love for music continued to grow.  BUNNY was born: a ukulele-comedy duo she performed with Heather Thomas (of Diaphanie). Their comedic shows blended theatre and music and they found themselves catapulting into the comedy scene, performing for The Winnipeg Comedy Festival and The SheDot Festival in Toronto.

Ten years after meeting backstage at a BUNNY show, Brittany and Mario Lagassé are partners in love and music, supporting each other in their respective artistic projects. Their first co-creation being the musical for kids, ‘Croakinole & Croakette.’ This pair of lively frogs sing, dance and hop their way through music of all genres, and have performed at Bike & Circuses (Green Kids 2024), The Winnipeg Fringe Festival (2025) and The Frog Follies Festival (2025).

Outside of music and creation, Brittany has performed and worked on several local theatre productions. Some of her favourite theatre credits include Love & Information (Company Link, 2021), Crazy Bone (Theatre Projects Manitoba, 2018) and Deserter (Moving Target Theatre, 2018).
