About Nicholas R.
Hello,
My name is Nicholas Richardson and I am a working professional actor from England with a passion for teaching, which I have cultivated over the years. My approach is friendly and detailed and based on my experience in the industry and with what works today. Part of our work together will be focussing on improving your skills technically, as well as building your confidence and exploring potential. I believe acting training can be extremely important whether your goals are to become a professional actor or to build communication skills, public speaking, or general confidence.
I have a BA in Television, Film and Theater theory from Bristol University in England, and an MA in Acting from The Guildhall School of Music and Drama (alumni includes Daniel Craig, Orlando Bloom, Lilly James) which is a classical training.
I have worked professionally in television, film and theater (with networks such as Hulu, Fox Search light and Comedy central TV) and am currently filming in New York on a show called Wu Tang: An American Saga. I also have an extensive background in theater.
I would be happy to meet with you for a half hour, free of charge meeting to discuss your goals or get a feeling as to how we might work together to accomplish them!
Thank you,

Things we might focus on dependent on your goals: Text work, (Classical and modern) improvisation, general meeting practice, movement, audition prep for both film, TV and theatre, self-taping and self taping analyses (practical), techniques in how to prepare yourself prior to auditions or rehearsals, and how to have fun while doing all of this!

Nicholas teaches from the heart with clarity and expert knowledge. After working with him I felt so prepared and confident. Would highly recommend!

Nick is an excellent teacher. He has already improved my creativity and communication skills so much in the few sessions I've had with him. I've been able to step outside of my comfort zone and am a better actor for it. Thank you Nick for such encouraging words and your kind spirit. I can't wait to work together again very soon.

Nicholas is fantastic! He is encouraging and knows exactly where to push to get that bit extra out of you.

Where do I even begin? I really cannot recommend Nicholas enough whether you’re somewhat of a professional or just starting out. I’ve always wanted to take Improv classes in a safe and exciting environment. Nicholas is a really talented, thoughtful instructor, and he not only makes you feel extremely comfortable with yourself but he pulls you own of your comfort zone at the same time to challenge yourself. I am so thrilled I started classes. I’ve learnt so many lessons that I can even apply to my daily life. I feel more confident. I’ve learnt to trust my own instincts more. I look forward to working with Nicholas always. It’s always such a great experience that the rest of the day just falls away every single time we have a lesson. It’s amazing to see the difference from when I started out. I highly recommend this instructor!

I just started taking acting lessons with Nicholas. It's been huge for me in my role at work. I am required to do so much public speaking and I heard that improv lessons would help me improve. I can already feel a difference with my clients. I'm starting to live the "yes and" mindset. Thanks Nick!!

I came to acting with no experience, but knowing it was something I wanted to get into. I found Nicholas to be encouraging and helpful, and felt myself improving and through his lessons quickly felt confident both in our sessions and outside of them. I am now a working actor myself. Highly recommend Nicholas for actors with or without experience, I still use him today!
