About Me
After attending the three year course at Guildhall School of Music & Drama in the 70s, I had a season in repertory theatre before being cast in The Rocky Horror Show - first in the Kings Road, and then at the Comedy Theatre. Since then I’ve worked in almost every area of the industry for 45 years.
I took time out to retrain as a voice coach at Central School, and taught voice in many leading drama schools including Rose Bruford, LAMDA, Central, Webber Douglas and Drama Studio London where I was Head of Voice for a decade.
I’m passionate about the business, and I’m open to opportunities in film, theatre, TV and commercials.
I’m based in London and Northants.
