Gemma

I trained at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and have acted professionally for 15 years, including Phoebe in `As You Like It` at the National Theatre, the Young Vic, Shakespeare`s Globe, and on BBC`s `Luther` and E4`s `Misfits`. Most recently I appeared in the stage debut of Mike Bartlett`s `Not Talking` at the Arcola Theatre.

Availability: Available weekdays, evenings, weekends.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I coach students for both drama school and professional auditions, help source material for auditions/showcase, prepare for LAMDA/Guildhall exams, or simply allow students to keep their acting muscle engaged by working through our own carefully tailored programme. I`ve had many successful drama school applicants including RADA, LAMDA, BOVTS and Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, as well as successful LAMDA exam candidates. I have also helped students obtain professional work across theatre, television and film.

I believe acting at its best is relaxed, playful and intuitive, but only when underpinned by rigorous and solid work. Whether you prefer to work physically, vocally, through text analysis, character work or various other techniques, being rooted in your acting will allow you to feel confident and flourish in high-pressured auditions or exams. You might even enjoy yourself...

My sessions are actor-led. I have experience working with all ages and abilities and tailor my work to suit you. I have a large space in which we can work, but am also happy to travel to you.
