About Laurence
I'm an actor & acting teacher, based in London. Over the last 2 years of auditions, six students (three each year) that I've worked with have been offered places on the BA Acting Course at RADA, specifically. Other actors I've taught are now training on 3 year courses at LAMDA, Bristol Old Vic, Royal Welsh, Rose Bruford, Italia Conti, Royal Scottish, and other accredited acting courses. It wouldn't be fair of me not to mention the dedication & talent of those individuals. Getting a place at drama school is an incredibly competitive & demanding process and they all deserved it for what they put in. If we're working together, I'll ask you to take it seriously and fully commit yourself to the process! As an actor I've worked on screen with the BBC as a guest lead - and played some supporting roles on stage in London & abroad. I also teach on the BA Acting Courses at Rose Bruford South (Previously ALRA), Fourth Monkey, and PPA, Guildford. And I run my own group classes, which are open to attend. Including an audition-prep intensive which takes place weekly from Sept - Dec.

My classes are based on core acting principles. Developing an intuitive understanding of action and intention, working with modern and classical text, listening, responding & accessing the imagination. For drama school prep - I can help you understand what to look for in an audition speech, and where to go to find them. How to use the words effectively, understanding what the text demands of me as an actor. We'll dedicate some time to interview practice, too. Understanding what kind of questions to expect, but also being prepared to be flexible enough to answer unexpected questions authentically. I can give you warm-up exercises to strengthen your vocal capacity, and to build on your physical ability to dynamically respond with a strong, truthful connection to the imagined world of the story you're telling. I can teach you how to usefully & practically analyse text, with a mind to free yourself up in playing the scene, accessing genuine impulses. Understanding intuitively what's important to my character and allowing my behaviour to be changed by the circumstances that they're in. I'll give you the fundamental questions that we use as actors to provoke transformation, that you can build into your own process & technique, as an actor. We will work intensively in a positive, encouraging environment.

Perfect! I'm glad to have Laurence as my first acting coach. His classes are incredibly detailed and easy to follow, even for me as an international student. He uses a variety of examples that make everything clear. He also creates a supportive atmosphere where I feel safe and focused. I highly recommend Laurence, not just to those who have some acting experience but also to complete beginners. His classes will give you a strong foundation in acting and help you build confidence and skill over time. I’m excited to continue learning and growing as an actor with his guidance :)
Perfect! A truly incredible tutor. He has a super detailed approach, and the way he explains concepts and ideas is really clear and helpful. It feels like he really cares about his work with you and goes above and beyond - for example when I was looking for monologues for my audition, he shared a plethora of great options with me to help me choose one. I learned and grew so much as an actor from my sessions with him. Highly recommend Laurence!
Perfect! Laurence is an excellent teacher who always creates a safe space for students to work in. he has the ability to push his students to reach their full potential whilst always being exceptionally kind, and patient. He always helps me experiment with new ideas and has taught me how to become more organic and confident in my work! His past experience in RADA also provides him with an exceptional knowledge of drama school auditions, which has taken away the stress of that process for me. I would highly recommend Laurence whether you're auditioning for drama schools or wanting to continuously improve your skills and grow as an actor!

And acting flowed like a river’s gentle breeze.I would highly recommend Laurence as an acting teacher, having attended his audition technique classes last year. Laurence’s patience, dedication and perceptiveness make him an excellent teacher. He was adept at identifying anxieties that were holding me back and encouraged me to trust my instincts more, which helped to unlock greater truthfulness in my performance. Following my classes with Laurence I was offered a place on the MA Acting course at East 15 and the MA Acting course at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. Laurence’s guidance was integral not only to this audition process, but also to my overall understanding and appreciation of acting. Whether you’re looking to audition for drama school or just fancy refreshing your work, you will find a dedicated teacher in Laurence.
Laurence is open, fun, very detailed, incredibly specific, informative, engaging and incredibly talented. Transformed my practice.
I discovered Laurence through word of mouth from his weekly meisner classes in London, from here I took part in his very well priced 8 week audition prep course which helped to build the foundations of how to approach work technically and mentally. Laurence is kind and caring yet also expresses the truth when necessary which is very valuable in a teacher. I start my first term at LAMDA this September and I thank Laurence for helping me develop the skills that got me there.
Laurence has been pivotal in helping me get into drama school. I moved to the UK from Asia and the acting technique there is vastly different, Laurence helped me adjust to the acting style here but yet always encouraged me to keep my instincts and impulses. He always told me to be committed in my impulses without fear of judgement, and that has helped me a lot to grow as an actress and human. I highly recommend him and am forever thankful for the help he has given me which got me a scholarship in Rose Bruford BA acting.
I've trained with Laurence for a short while now, mainly to brush up my acting skills and to continue learning and training in between jobs. Laurence is nothing short of amazing, he definitely knows the craft inside out, he'will notice every little detail and pull you up on it in order to get the best out of your performance. Its these subtleties that make all the difference between an average performance and something that will leave a mark. Laurence is genuine, friendly, and will strengthen your weaknesses whether your new to acting or advanced. I'm off on my hols but as soon as im back we will resume sessions.
Laurence has been a real helping hand for this years audition process, he’s provided the right practices in technique and mindset to support me to approach the work with more truth and honesty. He’s not afraid to be straight with you which is a very very valuable trait in a teacher. I start my first term at Lamda this September and I thank Laurence for the foundations he helped place at the start of this year.
Laurence is proving to be incredibly helpful in my preparation for drama school auditions. I feel I'm progressing with every session. I recommend him to anyone looking for an acting coach!
