Welcome!

 Hi, and welcome to yet another blog from me!

This is my blog dedicated to my work in voiceover, theatre and performance. While I've been active professionally in the former since 2016, I'm still moving towards becoming a pro in theatre and film - despite studying it at university a VERY long time ago.

This will have some crossover with my other blogs, in particular with my coaching page, but there is enough material going on in my life to ensure that they can all coexist peacefully :)

And nowhere and nothing was my precise destination for quite some time, until, that is, I saw a fateful advert in a newspaper that propelled me into the glamorous world of TEFL. And it was through that that I got my first experience of VO. Picture me, then, in a recording studio...

We've also been busy with a digital theatre performances. In the past year, I've reprised a couple of roles, as well as perform in a scratch theatre event, and now, I'm in rehearsals for an evening of monologues, titled Life Lessons. As the name suggests, it's a series of monologues that deal with life events from the perspective of people of differing ages. I'll be performing from Oedipus The King, though exactly what life lesson it has to offer is a bit uncertain, unless it's 'don't kill your dad, marry your mum and have kids' - which, to be honest, I don't think needs much drumming in. Anyway, I thought I'd keep a series of blog posts chroni...
