For Actors

Ben can help at all stages of the acting process whether your need is accent and dialect, voice and text or all of the above. He has worked on audition prep, preparation for the role, and working on vocal or dialect issues while the show is running.

Ben is a trained voice and text and accent/dialect coach and can work with you on accent/dialect sounds, vocal connection to the text, vocal extremes, etc. He has worked with actors in rehearsal to help them shape their performance and intentions to best serve the piece, the director and writer's needs, and to support the vocal instrument for rehearsal and performance.

Musicals - For actors auditioning for a musical, Ben has a great deal of experience and skill in putting dialect onto song, having worked on a number of Broadway shows, National tours and regional musical productions. He has collaborated closely with actors - including some on their TONY and other award winning roles - as well as composers, directors, and musical supervisors/directors to work out how dialect can work best within the melody and rhythm of individual songs within musicals.

Online - No matter where you are in the world, he can work via Zoom/Facetime/Skype etc in whatever time zone you are in. For example, while based out of London, Ben coached the cast of a play in Florida on the accent for their show, did a number of sessions online with a principal actor working on Hamilton on the West Coast, coached a NYC-based actor on a performance which was nominated for a Broadway World award, and prepped a couple of LA-based actors for auditions. Before COVID lockdown began, he did a number of sessions online with a principal actor working on Hamilton in San Francisco.
