Each session is tailored specifically to each student and Lily teaches a wide range of methods so that each actor has a ‘tool box’ that they can work from. Some of the areas Lily offers are Tackling a text- script work, Shakespeare, audition technique, self tape prep (technique and setup), acting through song, verse and prose, public speaking, LAMDA.
Lily also offers self tape workshops for parents of young actors to give them the knowledge to be able to support their children with auditioning at home.
