A working actor's perspective
Coaching Connected to What Reads on Screen
Richard's approach begins with the text, the relationships, and the circumstances of the scene—not a promise of shortcuts or guaranteed outcomes.
The aim is to make the work more specific, playable, and repeatable so your attention can return to the character and the moment.
