Audition, Vocal & Dialect Coach
Sound Designer | Music Director
Your needs are different than anyone else’s. I will tailor our sessions to you.
I draw upon the music of the language to introduce foreign accents or regional dialects, or to minimize your personal accent or dialect as the role requires.
What you do in production and class is quite different from what you do in an audition. I might very well be adjusting your focus and having you work differently with language and intention. What happens in an audition is unique and needs to represent a very specific type of presentation.
I have been coaching a number of people for what I refer to as strengthening their vocal presence. Many of them are not actors, but people who realize that it is to their benefit to sound confident and to speak with authority within their fields.
My earlier career included sound and music design for hundreds of productions. My book, Sound and Music for the Theatre: The Art and Technique of Design is considered ‘the bible’ by many working professionals, and is the companion publication to technical books for university and professional school studies.
