Announcing our new Patron- Joseph Adelakun
Face Front has a new Patron
Joseph Adelakun joins the Face Front family as the youngest and newest Patron. With an impressive CV (including productions with The National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company), Joseph is a brilliant role-model to other inspiring actors.
Artistic Director, Ray Downing says “I have known Joseph for over 18 years. As an emerging actor he was a member of Theatre Venture and NewVIc’s youth ensembles and it is no understatement to describe him as real ‘triple threat’ on any stage. His modesty is matched with his passion for performing and his unending energy. My kids were as impressed to see him in a Pokeman Movie as I was seeing him perform in Julius Caesar at The Barbican.’
Joseph is equally thrilled about making our partnership official and said “I’m super excited to become Face Front’s newest Patron! Being an actor myself, I know the power of what theatre can do, especially when it tackles important topics and is representative of its audience and community as Face Front so expertly does. Having seen first hand just how valuable, inclusive and fun their work is, and having already worked with some of the Face Front family in the past, I’m really looking forward to being a greater part of this amazing company as a Patron!”
