Acting coach
Acting at its best is playful and intuitive, but only when underpinned by rigorous and detailed work. Whether preparing for a specific audition or self-tape, or simply wanting to keep your acting muscles engaged, I can help you feel both rooted and free in performance.
I've worked as an acting coach for over five years. I teach from my home in South East London and also offer online coaching. My classes are £50ph.
Drama school auditions
Drama school auditions
Drama school auditions can be daunting. It is tempting to practise your pieces over and over, but often when it comes to the audition, you find yourself 'stuck'.
I can guide you through the process in a relaxed and constructive way. Selecting the right material is key, and together we can find the pieces that best showcase you and engage your imagination. We will then work to ensure you feel comfortable and prepared, but also able to play and have fun on the day.
I sit on the audition panel for Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and have taught at Arts Ed on the Acting BA, which has given me a unique insight into drama school application process. I have helped successful applicants to RADA, LAMDA, Royal Welsh, RCS, Drama Studio and Guildhall, as well as NYT.
Audition and self-tape prep
Working towards an audition? I can help you break down a script and make bold, clear choices. We will also play with different versions of the scene, to ensure you're able to take direction and respond intuitively in the moment.
I also offer a self-tape service. We can prepare and record your scenes together, and I'll provide direction between each take to ensure you're giving your strongest, most detailed performance.
