Shakespearience! Acting Lessons And Stage Combat Workshops

About

I was professionally trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London (RADA). There I studied the Meisner Technique, Stanislaviskian Naturalism, Shakespearean Acting, Method Acting, Scene Study, Vocal Technique, Singing, Restoration Theatre, Greek Theatre, Fight Choreography, Movement, Improvisation, Directing for Stage and much more. I was taught by John Beschizza, one of the best living acting teachers in the world and from the direct teaching lineage of Meisner and Stanislavski.

I am a working professional actor, and have performed on London’s West End. I have additionally been involved in award-winning films and one Super Bowl commercial. I have grown up in the film and theatre industry, and am familiar with the ins and outs of the business. I will also offer aid with developing a professional career in the acting industry.

I am an attentive, detail-oriented teacher. Implementing the methods and techniques of my training, I tailor my teaching based on a student’s individual needs, drawing inspiration from the great acting teachers - Uta Hagen, Sanford Meisner, and Stanislavsky.

Bill was so patient and thorough when I came in stressed out about an upcoming audition. He paid really close attention to what was working for me personally and what wasn’t, and I feel much more secure and confident in my work now. I will definitely be coming to him for help again soon!

Frequently asked questions

I will start by asking what their needs are; whether they are looking for help with a particular upcoming audition, choosing monologues, or something more akin to a professional acting training working from the ground up; starting with improvised situation exercises moving in to text work. I will also reccomend running movement and voice excercises with you if I feel you would benefit.
