I helped playwright/actor Yehuda Hyman with his dialects for The Mad 7, an IN-Festival Spotlight Production. Yehuda and I met several times at my studio, then had a couple of phone sessions once he was in rehearsal in New Jersey.
I'm coaching the Pasadena Playhouse production of Orson's Shadow. The production features actors playing Orson Welles, Laurence Olivier, Vivien Leigh, Joan Plowright, Kenneth Tynan and an Irish stagehand, so I'm coaching English accents as well as modified Mid-Atlantic for the Welles character. The cast includes Sharon Lawrence, Charles Shaugnessy, Bruce McGill and Scott Lowell.
I taught an introductory workshop on Received Pronunciation (RP) to approximately 125 members of the Screen Actors Guild, through their LifeRaft series. Upcoming workshops for members may include Learning the General American Accent and Learning Arabic Dialects.
