I’m excited and honored to share that last summer I accepted a position as Assistant Professor in the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale. It’s week eight of my first semester teaching at DGSD, and I’m having an absolutely wonderful time. I’m teaching speech and accents to the MFA Acting students, and it’s really a dream come true.
The University of Connecticut
This week, I started a new job as Assistant Professor of Voice and Speech at the University of Connecticut (UConn). I am teaching in the MFA and BFA Acting Programs there, as well as coaching productions at the Connecticut Repertory Theatre. I'm excited to join this wonderful community of artists!
The Shakespeare Academy @ Stratford & the O'Neill
I'm spending a few days a week in CT this summer to teach voice at both the Shakespeare Academy @ Stratford and at the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center in Waterford, CT. It's my first year teaching at SA@S, where an ensemble of actors rehearse two Shakespeare plays simultaneously while receiving masterclasses from visiting artists. This year, the ensemble will perform PERICLES and ROMEO AND JULIET in rep on the grounds of the historic American Shakespeare Festival Theater.
It's my fifth summer teaching in the Theatermakers program at the O'Neill. Summers at the O'Neill are always transformative for me and for the student artists there. Every Monday night, the Theatermakers perform for the local community. I'm excited to be in residence for their next performance of original radio plays.
Summer is good in CT!
Larry Singer Studios Summer Conservatory
This summer, I'm delighted to be teaching voice in the Larry Singer Studios Summer Conservatory in NYC. It's my first time teaching with Larry, and it's a real joy. The students study voice, physical acting, scene study, and writing for performance. They also attend professional productions and meet with industry professionals in the city. And they receive college credit!
