I believe in using what's unique about you as a person in your performance, so we'll spend time working together on how to bring out the "you" in your acting!
I believe in guiding rather than dictating, so I will always act as the guide to your discoveries rather than dictating what your performance "should" be. My background is primarily in Meisner acting work, so I will work with you to "act truthfully under imaginary circumstances". I also provide speech, voice, and movement work to supplement the acting work we're doing if you'd like.
About Kevan D.
Hi! I'm an actor, director, and playwright who loves sharing my passion for theatre with people of all ages. I have had the opportunity to train from some of the country's most exceptional theatre artists, and bring a wide array of tools to my work as an acting coach. I have a BFA and an MFA in Theatre Performance and continue to expand my own education with ongoing workshops and training opportunities.
I'm available for monologue coaching, audition preparation and coaching, scene/character work, as well as voice work like accents/dialects and healthy use of voice. I also work with non-actors who want to become more confident and relaxed public speakers.
Acting is hard work, but it should be fun!
As my student, you can expect a highly personalized experience. Whatever your experience, skill, or comfort level with performing is, I will work with you to make you a more present, spontaneous, and relaxed performer.
