Dialect & Accents for your production

There are many different ways of learning an accent and each actor needs to be supported in finding the most effective way for them. Rachel will allow the actors to feel confident in their ability to deliver an authentic accent.

Rachel takes great care in researching the dialect to ensure it is accurate and relevant to the time and location of the piece. She will work along side the creative team to produce the required results including timeframes, budget and audience perception.

If you have any queries or would like to make any enquiries you can either contact Rachel directly or her agent, Samantha Tooby.

This is a non-exhaustive list for indication purposes only. Please enquire about any other accent, if we can hear it, we can probably teach it!

Voice coaching for your production

The impact of the voice in a production can sometimes get lost by the wayside as budgets are squeezed and time is tight. It is such a core element of how we communicate and build a connection though, getting it right can transform a production. If your performers know what they are doing, build a connection between the voice and text, deliver full resonant performances, it will reflect in the work. Of course it also helps them to be heard, understood and have stamina too!

Voice work can be particularly beneficial if you are working with screen actors on stage, younger or less experienced actors, productions that require a lot of stamina, difficult spaces and also high profile productions where voices need to work just as well when they are under scrutiny and pressure.

We can work within your time frame and budget, so whatever you need or whatever issue you need to solve, please get in touch!
