"I’ve had the honor of working with Tom over the past 2 years and can’t begin to express what an absolute pleasure that was! On stage he is always 100% with his energy, delivery, and integrity. Off stage he is equally committed...often leading the cast in work outs, social media promotion and sight seeing excursions! His positive energy is contagious, his professionalism is well respected and the love for his craft is so appreciated. Every cast needs a Tom Brandon!"
- Jill Hillier LA Director - Choreographer - Tour Manager
"Tom has worked for me as a performer, Vocal Captain, Production Assistant and Assistant Vocal Director. As a performer, I had the privilege of watching Tom’s charisma and confidence blossom on stage - ultimately landing him a multitude of gigs that enabled him to travel the world doing what he loves most. As a Vocal Captain, his work was pristine and, above all, compassionate - his cast mates loved his no-nonsense yet easy-going approach. As a Production Assistant, he was always game for anything and did it all with a smile. As a Vocal Director, Tom is genuine, kind and clearly passionate about the art form - he aims to set each performer up for success with his superior skill set and takes tremendous pride in watching others shine. A jack of all trades, Tom thrives in creating a warm, supportive work environment and is one to watch - I can’t wait to see where he lands."

"Tom is one of the most accomplished and personable actors I have worked with. Not only is he always impeccably prepared for each rehearsal and performance, but he’s also a great communicator with creatives, producers and fellow cast members. I would happily employ him on any show I produce or direct - he’s a great professional and a great guy."
- Nic Doodson Producer - Director - Creative (Creator of Choir of Man, Gobsmacked & Noise Boys)
"Tom is an incredible performer and total professional. Having had him in our original cast since the inception of Choir of Man, Tom has continued to work hard and better his own performance show after show, without ever losing sight of the original vision. He's a great collaborative colleague, has boundless enthusiasm for all the work he does, and is a fantastic energy within the company."
- Jack Blume Music Supervisor/Composer
