Drama School Success - Audition Coaching

I would recommend Benjamin to anyone who is looking for support with their audition materials! In my first year of applying to drama schools I received no recalls, but after working with Benjamin over the past few months I have both degree and foundation offers with top drama schools, as well as being on a waitlist. The process helped me find the perfect speeches and I left every session seeing significant improvement in my pieces. Whilst knowing what areas I need to improve on to take them to the next level. Again I could not recommend Benjamin enough and without him I do not believe I would have achieved the success I have this year.

First of all, if youre here and your reading this, youve already made the right decision! This is quite long but worth the read so hang tight. Nearly a year ago, I decided to apply to drama school with no prior experience of the craft whatsoever. So I went searching for a tutor specific to drama school auditions and after reading the reviews like you are now, I met Ben. Ben is extremely specific and personal to the talent you bring to the table and sees how YOU can further develop it. There is no formula he uses but rather, he gives you the opportunity to really explore text and uncover truths you wouldnt otherwise discover. He ensures that EVERY time you go into a monologue, its as fresh as the first time you delivered it. He throws ideas your way and gives you a gentle nudge further into your optimum potential. Ben is so invested in your individual artistic growth and independence that he sort of carves you into this artist who has agency of your own process. And I think thats what really gives you momentum when going in for callbacks. He is also such a professional and sits down to plan out the pieces specific to the schools that youre applying to, ensuring that the text chosen portrays your talent in the best light. I CANNOT emphasize enough that without Bens help, I would not have been able to secure a place at Central-CDT course, LAMDAs MFA course and finally at RADA! Treat every session of Bens with the same import and professionalism you would going into your auditions and see what sorts of results you achieve!

I am very grateful to have been fortunate enough to have Ben as my coach. With his help, I was able to grow into a much stronger performer, and it resulted in me receiving offers from two world-leading drama schools. Thank you, Ben.

I found working with Benjamin to be a very eye opening experience. There were things I realised that I hadnt yet seen before, ideas grasped that I wasnt clear with previously, a level of freedom in performance unlocked that I hadnt reached yet and above all I had a lot of fun! With just a few classes with Benjamin, I got my audition pieces to a level capable of being accepted to the diploma in acting and theatre at the Lr! Im over the moon and incredibly glad that I decided to work with Benjamin towards achieving this. I would strongly urge anybody even considering drama school to do the same- you will not be disappointed!

I started taking classes with Benjamin in order to prepare for my drama school auditions and due to his hard work, I have received offers from NYU, Pace univeristy, AMDA and Marymount manhattan! Benjamin is an incredibly talented and passionate coach, with whom it is always a pleasure to work with. When I first started taking class with him, I knew very little about how to perform shakespeare monologues (which are essential for drama school auditions). Benjamin guided me through each monologue, and he also made sure to help me pick my monologues carefully. He put in the time and effort in order to find monologues which suited me. We also worked on modern monologues and he taught me how to understand the story I am portraying, which is what I believe got me through so many auditions. Every session we did was always so much fun as he is such an inspiration and is always there to guide you through your work. He taught me acting techniques which I will forever be using in my work and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with such an amazing, talented and inspirational coach.
