Mary is a fun and engaging dialect coach and I was lucky enough to work with her during a developmental production of Frank Wildhorn’s Wonderland. She is a thorough coach with a meticulous eye for detail. By the performance, I felt confident and consistent. Mary’s guidance allowed for my character’s dialect to not be just cohesive, but truly second nature. –Ray W.
Mary really knows her stuff! I’ve always loved accents and impressions, but I never knew how much technicality really went into it. Mary made it fun and easy to learn the finer points of dialect, helping me focus on important details of inflection while also prompting my sleepy mind with catchy songs and phrases so I could get into the accent naturally without thinking. A truly holistic and helpful education in a short time at a great price. –Ben R.
I had the pleasurable opportunity to work with Mary while preparing for my graduate recital at NYU. We explored four different dialects with in-depth precision. Mary was patient and thorough. She was learned, detailed and so helpful. Mary made sure that I understood the differences in pronunciation with super helpful phonetic tools and examples. I could tell from her knowledge that she was researched and prepared. I even recommended her to a couple Broadway performers who needed some coaching. She's the best dialect coach that I've worked with in my career. 10/10 recommend! -Nyla W.
