In 1997 she met Scott Williams and discovered the Meisner Technique which she now teaches across the UK and Internationally. Her practice is helping actors with their “Present Performance”. 


On top of all this, she is part of the rejuvenation project of the New Actors Centre, formally known as The Actors Centre. Kate is part of the team, including Harry Burton, which is helping to get it back on its feet. By providing London based actors with a place that will run classes and help rebuild the actor and creative community that was under threat when it initially closed.

Thank you Kate!
