Student Testimonials: Drama School Audition Coaching Results
“I am so grateful to have trained with Evelyn. She cared for my human growth as much as my artistic growth. Thanks to her guidance I built a confidence that allowed me to go into an audition room and be unapologetic with my choices and experience of a character. She is professional, incredibly supportive and challenged me to push the boundaries of what I thought I was capable of. She empowered me to find my voice and get into my dream program. She keeps open communication on what you are interested to work on and will never impose anything, rather than open your eyes to new possibilities. Evelyn is an incredible coach and even a more incredible human being. I can’t recommend working with her enough!””
— Marian D. (Yale MFA)“Evelyn is a dedicated artist with an incredible eye for truth, and her kindness and support is unmatched! She has an ability to help actors get out of their heads and into the present moment.
She guided me through my audition process for NYU’s graduate acting program. I’m confident that her coaching helped me get into the program, and she never made me feel like the outcome would define me. It was the process that mattered! And through the process of working with her, whether for grad school or preparing for a role, I always feel more grounded and more free.”
— Kylee J. (NYU MFA)“Evvy is a phenomenal coach. From our first session, I felt I was in the hands of a true professional with sharp directing instincts and a profound capacity for empathy. She demonstrates honesty over flattery, and will take the extra time to help an actor find the right image or movement to feel grounded in a world. She strikes a perfect balance of being relatable and academic, and demystifies classical text analysis through her emphasis on “thinking the thoughts” and Grotowski movements. She’s genuine, timely, makes herself available, and feels like the best person in your corner! I will be working with Evvy for years!”
