“Sarah, what an amazing job!!!! That audition
brought me to tears! Hopefully it will [for] the
director and producer as well…” — Carrie Kohan,
ecstatic with the acting performance of her
daughter, Nakita, after an audition -- in a
writing to Nakita’s agent and to Sarah Jane.
One of Sarah Jane’s clients wanted to convince his
agent to do more than commercials, and so a
“dynamic scene” was prepared and filmed. The day
after, the feedback from the agent was this:
#
“She asked me to call her and I did. She now
has officially put me on her principal roster. I'm not
just going out for commercial auditions anymore!!!
YAY!!! Thank you for your help Sarah, and I have a
audition tomorrow! Non-speaking, but it’s a start!!” —
Kindall Charters, Actor
Sarah Redmond as an acting coach is amazing. She is
both picky with your performance but also very kind
and supportive. Sarah gently critics your performance
and perfects it with positive feedback.
#
When I first went to Sarah I was new to the
industry and a bit nervous about different aspects of
auditioning. Sarah prepared me for everything that
would happen in the audition room and helped me to
get over my fears. Sarah is more than just an acting
coach. She takes the time to get to know her students
on an individual basis to provide customized training.
#
Sarah provides a safe place that makes it easy
to excel. I noticed a huge improvement in my
performance after just one session, to the point where
my agent had circulated my audition tape around the
office!
