My status

Being in Voice focuses on the whole performer in the context of the whole performance. The training consists of integrated voice and acting exercises and techniques I have encountered over the years, and incorporated into my own performance practice, from the work of Valerii Galendiev, Kristin Linklater, Roy Hart, Catherine Fitzmaurice, Cicely Berry, Ira Seidenstein, John Wright, Frankie Armstrong and many others.
