Acting school graduate shares tips on nailing the perfect audition to get into theatre school
Methodology
In our one-on-one coaching sessions, you will come in with your monologue memorized and ready to be workshopped. I will coach you through the text, and through scenework. Ultimately, though, what sets you apart from the crowd is what you bring to the table that makes you special and unique. I'm here to push you hard and advocate for you at the same time.
Background
I am a recent graduate of the UBC Acting program. I have supervised and ran workshops at the Gateway Theatre Academy and at Bard on the Beach. My teaching experience has centered primarily around text work, improvisation, and Shakespeare, but is not limited to those areas. If you're looking for someone to help you nail that monologue to get into the theatre school of your choice, or if you want to ask someone questions who's gone through theatre school, I am whom you've been looking for.
