ACTING COACH

One of the top acting coaches in London.
— Backstage

As one of London’s premier acting coaches, recognised by and featured in Backstage, I coach actors to create work that casting directors and directors can’t ignore and audiences are compelled to engage with.

Whether its preparation for a casting or self-tape, developing a role you’ve been cast in or ongoing development of your technique, work closely with me and you will deepen and refine the way you approach a script, increase your emotional depth and expand your behavioural range.

My sessions will remove the guess-work from the process of acting and establish a new found clarity in your work, while providing a powerful conviction to everything you do.

I have coached hundreds of actors for castings and role development within a number of high-profile Feature Films, TV Series and Theatre Productions, including: Lars Von Trier's ’Nymphomaniac’, HBO ‘Game Of Thrones’, Warner Bros ‘Fantastic Beasts’, Netflix ‘The Sandman’, BBC 1 ‘Peaky Blinders’, Sony Pictures ‘Outlander’, National Theatre ‘London Tide’, Theatre Royal ‘A View From The Bridge’.

Past and present coaching clients include: Ed Speleers (Picard, You, Outlander, Downton Abbey, Wolf Hall), Stacy Martin (Lars Von Trier's Nymphomaniac, Ridley Scott’s All The Money In The World, Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist), Fola Evans-Akingbola (The Night Agent, Ten Percent, Game Of Thrones), Emily Beecham (1899, Little Joe, Cruella), Benedict Wong (Doctor Strange, David Copperfield), Razane Jammal (The Sandman, Paranormal, Berlin Station), Freddie Fox (Slow Horses, The Sandman), Laura Birn (Foundation, The Crow), Jamie Ward (Verona, His Dark Materials), James Murray (The Crown, Masters Of The Air), Julian Kostov (The White Lotus, Shadow & Bone), Christina Wolfe (FBI: International, The Weekend Away, Batwoman).
