Damien has a unique talent for identifying and understanding actors' strengths & tailors an approach that suits the individual tackling the areas with potential to improve & grow. Sensitive & fair - yet firm, Damien's attitude toward his work is infectious and makes you feel ready to work.
I have repeatedly worked with Damien on audition pieces, he always has exciting & explorative ways to naturally unearth good, solid work from me. I always leave feeling elated & a better actor after working with him.Damien is an insightful and patient teacher. When I needed help with a role, he devised exercises and approaches on-the-spot to help me inhabit the character both physically and psychologically. He instilled confidence in me to perform and laid out a set of useful techniques for preparing and getting into role to use by myself during the run of the play. He is very knowledgeable about the craft of acting and I recommend him highly.
