MEET THE FACILITATOR

Rebecca Murphy
Bec is an absolute superstar. She has given me invaluable techniques and strategies to move past my personal blocks and fully connect with the character, but also the courage to use my voice and trust myself and my instincts as an actor. She creates such a wonderful, safe training environment and she finds a way to seek the absolute best from each participant in the way that works for them, because I believe she truly enjoys helping others grow.” Paris, 2023
