Alice was a specific and insightful director when I was a young actor taking on a challenging role. Her direction was specific and clear. She helped me find insight into the character and guided me to make strong and clear choices as an actor. She handled intimate onstage moments with a great combination of senstitivity and humor.

Down to earth and tangible.

Alice is a very perceptive, fun, intelligent person to work with. She's good at guiding actors, but also helping them make their own discoveries.

She is a wonderful listener and a great observer. She proposed interesting ideas and solutions that I normally wouldn't have thought of. She's a fun and energetic person to work with too. So you feel she is almost as much a friend and colleague as a "coach." Very highly recommended! If you get a chance to work with her, jump on it!
