Led by Viv Gordon, artist, CSA campaigner and survivor-activist, our work is ambitious, loud and defiant and grounded in the lived experience of CSA survivors.

 

We work collaboratively, using theatre, writing, comedy, poetry and music to amplify the voices of survivors, build community power and work to create meaningful social change.

 

Our projects include installation and performance work ‘Cutting Out’ about Viv Gordon’s autobiographical CSA survivor journey and ‘I am Joan’, a comedy dance theatre show about surviving trauma; ‘Plain Sight’, a creative research film series designed to challenge harmful attitudes; and multiyear Home Office funded programme ‘UpFront Survivors’. 

In 2026, Viv Gordon Company launches ‘Restless’, a new gig theatre show that weaves together contemporary punk music and poetry to reflect on the survivor journey.

 

Viv Gordon Company is based in Bristol and works and performs nationally in the UK.

Our vision is that arts and culture better reflects contemporary society, actively welcoming and including CSA survivors.


We would love to see a world transformed by art, where survival is celebrated. 

We imagine a cultural landscape that is accessible and inclusive for CSA survivors to create and enjoy more art, take creative risks and step into cultural leadership.


We are here to amplify survivor voices through bold, daring, creative work.
