Jordan S. Daniel is an award-winning creative from Edinburgh, Scotland, speaking loudly and proudly for marginalised identities. Jordan works across the UK creating performance work for theatre, film and music. She previously has presented for podcast and radio, sharing stories rooted in overcoming adversity and trauma. Their passion when working in theatre is analysing characters and personas within the writing, wanting to understand how they think, feel and act whilst educating audiences on lived experience outside of the heteronormative lens. As well as giving space for conversations around challenges disabled, or people living with mental health, may face.

Jordan S. Daniel trained at Queen Margaret University (BA Drama and Performance) 2013-16 and at Edinburgh College of Art (MA Contemporary Art Practice) 2018-20.”
