About Paul
Hello! My name is Paul, and I’m a Guildhall trained actor, currently entering my 20th year in the profession!
I have been lucky enough to work successfully in all areas of the industry, including theatre, radio, TV, Film, and more.
I have played leading roles in the West End, in both musicals (Henry Higgins in “My Fair Lady”), and plays (currently “Witness for the Prosecution” at County Hall), as well as countless other theatre productions up and down the country, and around the world.
Screen work has ranged from series regulars in such shows as STARZ/DISNEY+ “Da Vinci’s Demons”, to working opposite screen greats like Julie Walters, Alun Armstrong, Jane Horrocks, and Tom Hollander.
I have spent years helping fellow actors bring their A-game to auditions, and assisted deep dives on character and script when they’ve booked the jobs too. Most recently I have helped clients attain leading roles in WAITRESS and MAMMA MIA, as well as screen roles.
Whether you’re a newbie wanting to enter the industry, or a seasoned pro wanting to elevate your craft and book more auditions/work, I am here to help you navigate it all.

My Guildhall training, alongside 19+ years of experience working in the industry, has given me a wealth of knowledge.
I bring a personal and friendly approach to my teaching, based on my training at Guildhall, alongside my 19 years experience in the profession.
For me, a focus on the craft of acting brings not only individual growth, but also highlights the career longevity all actors should be aiming for. As the saying goes: it’s a marathon, not a sprint.
I have vast experience in the industry itself; onstage (I’m currently back in the West End in “Witness for the Prosecution”), on screen (most recently the current series of Silent Witness), and beyond. I am able to help actors at all levels: from starting out, and preparing for drama school auditions (including sourcing the right speeches for you), to ensuring you are giving your absolute best when in the profession.
My super power is helping actors break down audition scenes/speeches to find the hidden gems in scripts that will enable you to stand out from the crowd of submissions. (My work as a professional playwright complements this.)
My career mentorship specialises in helping actors reappraise the way they approach the industry; to up their chances of not only getting auditions, but being successful with them once casting directors call you in.
Lessons are always tailored to your specific needs at every point: from a last minute audition, to focusing on longer term goals. Simple changes can lead to extraordinary results.
I look forward to working with you!

Paul is not only an incredible human and collaborator , he is also an amazing teacher. Always giving you his full attention and time, he will shower you with kindness, support and generosity. Not to mention, his 20 years of acting knowledge and practice to share! For me he has been an immeasurable help when developing my ability to work with actors as a film director. Highly, highly recommend Paul, not only for the incredible guy he is, but also for his unique and invaluable insight into acting and performing!
When I got my self tape through I instantly knew Paul would be the perfect person to go to. He has so much experience and knowledge which he does not hesitate to share in order for you to achieve your best work. He provides a friendly and supportive environment as well as being efficient so that I could learn as much as I could in the session. Highly recommend
Where do I even start with this LEGEND! I met Paul on a show 4 years ago and knew he was someone I wanted in my life forever!! Such a proactive and compassionate person he really thrives off making other people happy and making them succeed. He is so passionate about the arts creative in every way.
Recently he helped me with a script for a job and I got it! Who knows that tiny tweak that was made…might have been what just got me that offer.
You’d never find a more committed individual and cannot recommend him more.I have known Paul for 20 years, first as a friend and then as an acting coach. He is incredibly sharp, insightful and curious as a person and offers amazing guidance and questions when working on text and breaking down a scene. He has a fun & playful personality & creates a very safe & focused environment to work in. Paul is also encyclopaedic when it comes to theatre, film and tv, offering wonderful references and insights. I highly recommend Paul as an acting tutor - you will feel so much more prepared, detailed & ready to smash your auditions after working with him.
Paul has coached me on numerous occasions with TV, film and theatre auditions. in fact the very first time we worked together - I booked a television job! Paul has a rare and magic quality where he not only instills total confidence and belief in his students but helps find the joy and play in auditioning. He is meticulous when it comes to working with text, and always encourages me to make new and exciting choices. After working with Paul I always leave feeling confident and fully prepared which frees me up in the audition room because I know the material is fully in my bones. Cannot recommend him enough.
