A focus of her stage roles, however, was on modern and absurd theater .

She then appeared as a teacher in the films Otto is a Rhinoceros (1983) and Busters verden (1984). In Anders Refn's TV series Een gang strømer (1987) she took on the role of journalist Terese Arnberg.

As a film actress, she achieved her breakthrough with her role in Eddie Thomas Petersen's film drama Springflod (1990), in which she played the mother of the juvenile criminal Franco, who was overwhelmed by the upbringing of her son. This was followed by successful appearances, each as a mother, in the children's films Ich bin's, Jasper (1992) and Snooky - My very best friend (1992). In the film Roser og persille (1993) she was seen again as singer Nora Kjær under the direction of Eddie Thomas Petersen. In the five-part television series Hjerteflimmer (1998) she played Sarah, a neurotically frustrated woman in the middle of her life.

In Annette K. Olesen's film drama Kleine Missgeschicke (2002) she played Eva, one of the family's two daughters. In the Danish crime thriller Unconditional (2007) she had a supporting role as the nurse Irma.

In October 2016, Faurschou was seen alongside Peter Sattmann and Sandra Borgmann in the ZDF “Herzkino” film A Summer in Denmark . She played Gitte Mortensen-Sandberg, the second wife of the old hippie Carl Sandberg, who lives with him in the alternative housing estate Freistadt Christiania.
