Boston, MA Theater Acting Lessons

I've been teaching Theatre Acting for over two years. I specialize in Cold-Reading Techniques, Stage Vocal Exercises and Preparation, and Stage Presence Cultivation. My methods will help you tap into your inner stage actor and realize your potential!

I have been involved in several productions, and have extensive acting experience. I am able to help my students study their characters, and realize a wide range of acting choices.

I've trained at Michael Howard Studios in New York City with Michael Howard and Mimi Turque. I am an alum of Broadway Theatre Project and have performed across the world in a variety of theatrical productions.

Private acting lessons will be primarily focused on coaching audition materials and techniques. Materials include monologues, sides, scenes from plays, etc. Techniques include voice clarity and projection, enunciation, facial expression, emotion, character development, and more.

I have been teaching acting for five years, and been performing and directing in stage productions for twenty years. I have experience in singing, dancing, stand up, monologues, Shakespeare, magic acts, cabaret-- anything you could need help with creating or perfecting I'm here to help you!

Self awareness is paramount for my students. If you cannot be in the present then you have no truth. Students learn how to drop their minds, how to recognize emotions inside on a deeper level, and the importance of powerful storytelling, plus they learn how easy communicating is once fears and stresses are eliminated.

I recommend 12 classes for highest benefit, though if coaching for one event is what you need I can happily help there as well.

I've been teaching acting for 5 years and my students have gone on to gain acceptance into Harvard University, Yale University and NYU. I specialize in audition technique, cold reading technique, Shakespeare performance, scene study, voice, speech, physical acting, and character creation. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels! I can't wait to meet you!
