Excellent! Despite being just a consultation, you can still learn a lot. Shirley was very honest, straightforward and professional. She could detect whats holding me back. Use constructive criticism and make you better for it. It would be a pleasure to continue lessons with her.

Perfect! My daughter wants to go into acting but was initially scared of doing her first and solo acting lesson. Shirley was very encouraging and patient. She knows what she’s doing and she’s very experienced. She made my daughter comfortable and now daughter is excited for her next lessons. Thanks Shirley!
