TESTIMONIALS

"I loved your coaching and learned loads and loads. It's been an amazing journey delving into the writing, the story, the characters and the motivations and I’m very grateful for your expert guidance and instruction."
​David Greeves
Actor, Fight & Movement director and Aerial choreographer

“I feel better for the experience, I want this now and I want to perform, to challenge myself, and to explore what I can do. And I have you to thank for that.”
Emma O' Grady - Actor, Producer & Writer

"Working with you has been a vital part of my development.”
Gemma Mc Gill - Actor & Writer

“The work session was of immense benefit to me. The consistency of what we did, day after day, in a collective understanding, allowed us notice our progress, and achieve some depth in the work; to get used to the principles at play and understand the value of their application.”
Christopher Samuel Carrol - Actor & Writer

“I was challenged physically and creatively all at once, that is there was no separation from the play and the work. The workshop was so inspiring and freeing and thank you so much for opening us all up to this work.”
Meadhbh Haiceid - Performer & Writer

“What was great about the course was that care was taken to ensure that we would be able to continue working in this way ourselves once the week had ended… The week suggested a set of goals and an array of tools with which to go about achieving those goals.”
Priscilla Nic Chonmara - Actor & Writer

“It's difficult to articulate what a profound effect the workshops have been on us as a group and on me as a person.”
Sophie Campbell - Actor

The core of the developing actor’s process as rooted in enduring acting principles and seminal approaches that have stood the test of time forms the basis of my coaching.

My methodology is strongly rooted in the research and principles of Konstantin Stanislaviski and extended through the work of Russian & European reformers including Vsevolod Meyerhold, Yevgeny Vakhtangov, Nikolai Demidov, Jerzy Grotowski, Michael Chekhov, Maria Knebel and Eugenio Barba.

Work with text-based psychological realism and screen acting integrates processes and techniques from American and British Post­-Stanislavskian methodologies and interpreters such as Lee Strasberg, Robert Cohen, Practical Aesthetics (David Mamet), Uta Hagen, Stella Adler, Sandford Meisner, Brigid Panet, Doreen Cannon and Mike Alfreds.

Work on classical performance and heightened text employs techniques from the teachings of Cicily Berry, Patsy Rodenberg, Kristin Linklater, John Barton and Peter Hall among others.
