Critic Reviews & Testimonials
“Fuzz is played by Ed Skrein who works diabolical wonders with it ... he makes every "f'real" delectable. ”
— Variety's Owen Gleiberman, reviewing MONA LISA AND THE BLOOD MOON
“There’s no denying the swagger brought to the play by its leading man Orlando Bloom, playing a Texas contract killer with a husky-voiced insouciance and pitch-perfect accent.”
— NY Times' Matt Wolf, reviewing KILLER JOE
“Alex Kingston and Sarah Hadland’s American accents communicate the depth of their characters beautifully.”
— London Theatre Review, reviewing ADMISSIONS
“Rebecca has been a revelation for me. Her approach to teaching involves visual, audio, physical, and emotional techniques that have helped me so much and got me to a place where I feel comfortable and confident when on set. She has been irreplaceable … and she makes it fun! Very grateful.”
— Ed Skrein, actor
“She has an intuitive understanding of the balance between what my needs were for the production, alongside the individual needs for each performer. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Rebecca again.”
— Natasha Nixon, director Young Vic Theatre
“... excellent support performance from a brooding Joe McGann, his Liverpool accent well buried and replaced with the drawl of the American west ...”
— Anne Cox, reviewing FOOL FOR LOVE
“You knew exactly what was needed for this production.”
— Yael Farber, director Old Vic Theatre
In rehearsals or on set, in pre-production or in post … we can design and execute the sound as seamlessly as lights, camera, action.

The most ideal situation when working on a production is being in rehearsal or with the actor on set. It allows for the actors to be warmed-up appropriately, and for discreet notes to be passed along at opportune moments. The actors, director and I develop a working relationship that enhances production’s overall vision in the most seamless way possible.
Productions find that scripts can sometimes change quickly, and I help maintain continuity throughout the process. In the rehearsal room I troubleshoot vocal queries and work on text in a breakout room.
On Set support includes giving notes to the Script Supervisor for the editing room.
Perhaps a production requires a dialect from a past era, or an actor needs to sound like a real-life person. In unique cases a script may require an entirely different language, either real or imaginary.
This is where pre-production research and design comes in. I read scripts and consult with directors / producers on the vocal vision. I may pull recordings from my archive, or create my own.
This allows a production to design the voices and dialects much like any other aspect of a show.
Film and television usually goes back to smooth out dialogue & sound issues in a process known as Automated Dialogue Replacement (ADR).
I prep actors on the cues before they go to their ADR session, or I am in the recording studio giving notes in real time.
This is useful if production is giving their feedback simultaneously. We work as a team to create the desired sound.
When it comes to difficult scripts or writing, it is imperative to have a dialogue coach in the room to work with the actors on the text.
A director may have a specific vision for the voice or text that can be brought to life through dialogue or text coaching.
