ON VOICE IN-PERSON

"A big thank you for your help yesterday. Feeling a lot better about the audition now"

These days the emphasis of voice work has changed.  When most of the work is on screen and most theatre is augmented with body-mics, it's much less about filling large spaces.  Your voice is central to your work but the bad news is that its range, expressiveness and truth is reduced by tension. And castings, whether in person or self-tape, are tense. Thanks to the unique partnership between The Actors' Guild and Spotlight you can now reduce the negative effects of nerves by exercising your voice in the casting environment of a Spotlight studio.

***As part of Spotlight's commitment to supporting professional actors this class is free of charge - our thanks to them for their continuing support***

"Another great workshop - this voice class comes hugely recommended"

"I really like the set-up and each session has been different and tailored to what the participants would like to cover."

"On a deeper level it has really helped to refocus me"

Please note: If you sign up for this free workshop and subsequently find you cannot attend, PLEASE do cancel your place. We always have a long waiting list for this class and if you don't cancel when you know you can't come, then you are stopping someone else from getting a place.

***If this class displays as sold out then join the waiting list and be the first to hear when a space come up - or when this class is re-listed with a new date***

Dancers and musicians all practice regularly, but there's less culture of that among actors. The Actors Guild's On Voice is changing that!

You can use the sessions for whatever you've got on at the time: keeping your voice and text-responsiveness limbered between jobs, working in theatre spaces after a period in film, extending your vocal range and expressiveness, finding the 'voice' of a character, finding reality with classic and modern text, sight reading, checking on the truthfulness of your voice when working on screen.

"I came out feeling relaxed and connected. I felt like there were some new exercises introduced to me that previously I was not familiar with. I got to work on a monologue I had not shown to anyone in a safe environment"

"I hope to come to more sessions. I find voice work extremely valuable and I'm surprised there are not more voice classes out there. So for me these classes are a great opportunity."

"I liked the fact that each person was treated with a different approach according to their needs. I would recommend these workshops very highly to everybody. I wasn't really sure what to expect, but have used everything we did since then."

"I just had to tell you how fantastic the On Voice workshop was... He really is a master."

"A fantastic affirming workshop! An absolute must for any actor eager to work on their craft!"

"The class really unlocked lots of things for me, and I had a complete lightbulb moment. It really felt like a step for me, and was incredibly satisfying, so thank you very much!"
