Some stills from some of the films and theatre l've worked on over the past couple of years.

I've been lucky enough to work on some wonderful projects with amazing and talented people who I have observed and learnt so much from.

Some of the techniques I used on these productions will be explored in my Acting for Beginners course which is beginning in October.

I'm delighted to see bookings come in for the course, but places are limited so be sure to email me if you're interested in securing a place.

The course is for 8 weeks and is aimed at beginners and developing actors, focusing on how to approach a scene and character with as much specificity as possible to ensure the most truthful performance.

Please email [email protected] to book your place or if you have any questions.

The greatest there was. Fearless, funny, powerful, vulnerable, so exciting and beyond beautiful. She was so authentic and truthful in everything she did.
Nothing about her asked for approval or permission. She was truly one of a kind.

Hi, I'm Rebecca, an actor and teacher recently returned to Galway. I am introducing an 8 week acting course for beginners this October and would like to welcome anyone interested in exploring the world of Acting.

A little bit of information about me.....

I studied Acting at The American Academy of Dramatic Arts, NYC and Bow Street Academy, Dublin. I studied Film at Columbia College Hollywood, majoring in Producing. During this time I worked for a production company, Picturesque Films on their film 'Bunraku' starring Woody Harrelson, Demi Moore and Josh Hartnett. While in Los Angeles, I also worked for Mark Saks Casting at CBS Studios on the hit TV show 'Numbers' and 'Medium' starring Patricia Arquette.

I returned to Dublin where I received my MPhil in Theatre and Performance from Trinity College Dublin while embarking on my professional acting career in Dublin.

My acting credits include:

Theatre - 'Shelter', Druid Theatre Company, Galway International Arts Festival, 'Playboyz', Martin Sharry, Dublin Theatre Festival, 'It's Not Over', THEATREclub, Dublin Theatre Festival, 'Seven Plays', Grace Dyas, Abbey Theatre, 'Advocacy', Shaun Dunne and Aisling Byrne, Project Arts Centre (Best Ensemble, Dublin Fringe Festival 2014), 'Looking for Work', Martin Sharry, Project Arts Centre, 'Purple', Edwina Casey, Project Arts Centre.

Film - 'The Cry of Granuaile', Donal Foreman, 'Michael Inside', Frank Berry (Best Film IFTA 2018), 'Rosalyn', Olivia Middleton, 'Acceptable Risk, Kenny Glennan, 'Stay', Wiebke Von Carolsfeld.

I began my teaching career while living in Dublin and I have become very passionate about sharing what I have leant, both through my studies and my professional experience. I am excited to continue to pursue teaching with both new and experienced actors, children and adults, doing what I love, Acting.
