1 hr 36 min - Vocal Clinic with Fitzmaurice Voicework Teacher Scott Ferrara
Today I'm excited to share a "vocal clinic" we did as part of The Rehearsal Room with certified Fitzmaurice Voicework teacher, Scott Ferrara!
This is something very new to me, so I was excited to learn directly from a teacher, and as you hear, this work can be very different (and still quite beneficial) to the "traditional" voice warm-ups you may know. There are also many personal applications to this voicework beyond acting—something you can carry into many areas of your life!

58 min - Q&A with Voice Teacher/Coach Ursula MeyerToday we have a great discussion with another often overlooked role in the theatre: the voice coach!
Similar to a dramaturg, one of the primary roles of this coach and teacher is to help make the text clear—that means both in how you deliver the words and also taking care of your instrument!
Ursula Meyer is currently the head of graduate acting at UCSD. She has had the privilege of studying voice with Cicily Berry, Patsy Rodenburg, Andrew Wade, Arthur Lessac and is a designated Linklater teacher. She graduated with distinction from the Advanced Voice Studies Program at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in London under David Carey.
