About The Audition Lab
Sessions can include repertoire and material selection, character and song interpretation, vocal and acting choices, audition technique, performance feedback and practical preparation. We’ll identify what’s working, pinpoint areas to develop and give you clear, actionable feedback you can take into your next audition.
Most importantly, the sessions are tailored to you — your voice, your strengths, your experience and the opportunities you’re working towards. Whether you need a final polish before an audition or want to build your confidence and skills over time, the Audition Lab gives you a focused space to experiment, refine your choices and walk into the room feeling prepared.
Come with a song, monologue, self-tape or audition brief — and leave with clearer choices, practical tools and greater confidence in your performance.
FAQ'S
Who are the 1-2-1 Audition Lab sessions for?
Our private Audition Lab sessions are designed for actors, musical theatre performers and emerging professionals who want focused, personalised support with an upcoming audition, self-tape or casting.
What can we work on in an Audition Lab session?
Sessions are completely tailored to you. We can work on songs, monologues, scenes, self-tapes, audition briefs, character choices, repertoire, vocal technique, acting choices and overall performance. We’ll focus on whatever will be most useful for your specific opportunity.
Can I bring material for an upcoming audition?
Absolutely. In fact, this is often the best way to use your session. Bring your audition brief, song, monologue, sides or self-tape requirements and we can work directly on the material you’re preparing.
I’m not sure what song or monologue to choose. Can you help?
Yes. Choosing the right material can make a huge difference to an audition. We can help you explore repertoire and find material that allows you to showcase your individual strengths, personality and performance style.
Can I get feedback on a self-tape?
Yes. We can review your self-tape and give you specific, constructive feedback on your performance, choices, vocal delivery, acting, presentation and anything else that could strengthen your submission.
What happens during a session?
We’ll start by understanding the audition, opportunity or goal you’re working towards. From there, we’ll identify the areas that need attention and spend the session actively working through your material. You’ll receive practical feedback, explore different choices and leave with clear things to work on.
Do I need to prepare anything before the session?
If you’re working towards a specific audition, it’s helpful to bring the audition brief and any relevant material. You don’t need to have everything figured out beforehand — part of the session can be used to explore and develop your choices.
Are these sessions suitable for beginners?
Yes. Whether you’re new to auditions or have extensive professional experience, the coaching is adapted to your individual needs and experience.
Can you help with both acting and singing auditions?
Yes. We can work across acting and musical theatre auditions, including monologues, songs, scenes and self-tapes. Sessions can also combine acting and vocal work where appropriate.
Will you tell me what I’m doing wrong?
The aim isn’t simply to tell you what’s “wrong.” We’ll give you honest, constructive feedback and help you understand why a particular choice may or may not be working. You’ll then have the opportunity to experiment, make adjustments and find choices that feel authentic to you.
Can I book a session just before an audition?
Yes. A one-off session can be particularly useful for a final polish, checking your choices, working through nerves or getting an outside perspective before you audition.
Can I have regular Audition Lab sessions?
Absolutely. While some performers book sessions for a specific audition, regular coaching can also be useful for developing audition technique, building confidence, exploring repertoire and preparing for future opportunities.
Do I need to be in London?
Not necessarily. Sessions can be offered online, allowing you to access personalised Audition Lab coaching wherever you are.
