Voice Coach to the Stars to Work With UU Drama Students

Voice coach to the stars, Patsy Rodenburg, will visit the Magee campus next week as the final guest in the Bank of Ireland Leading Ladies series.
Patsy, who has coached world famous actors including Dame Judi Dench, Daniel Day-Lewis and Sir Ian McKellan, will share the secrets of her trade with UU drama students in an afternoon workshop in the Foyle Arts Building.
She will also present a Voice Masterclass, which will be open to the public, in the Great Hall.
Patsy is currently Director of Voice at the Royal National Theatre and also the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. She is recognised as one of the world’s leading voice and acting coaches.
Her contribution to British Theatre was recognised this week when she received an OBE.
Patsy’s workshops and masterclasses are designed to encourage actors to free their natural voices and find their true vocal personality. Dame Judi Dench said: “The best thing you can possibly have is a class with Patsy.”
A limited number of tickets are available for the public Voice Masterclass, which will take place on Monday 12 December at 8pm in the Great Hall, Magee campus. For availability contact the Cultural Development Office: 028 7137 5658.
