Jeannette Nelson is one of the world's leading voice coaches. In the course of over a decade as Head of Voice at the National Theatre, she was responsible for ensuring that everyone who took the stage at Britain's leading theatre was communicating clearly and charismatically. Along the way, she worked with some of the greatest actors of our time - from Al Pacino to Benedict Cumberbatch to Juliette Binoche - on some of their most notable roles across stage, film and TV. Nelson's first book, The Voice Exercise Book (2015), has become the go-to guide for actors looking for exercises to help improve their vocal clarity. 'Jeannette's knowledge is astonishing and her approach so gentle and effective' Derren Brown
I owe Jeannette a huge debt of thanks. She was recommended as the best in the business, and has worked with me for years on my one-man shows. Her knowledge is astonishing and her approach so gentle and effective. * Derren Brown * Jeannette makes the world of voice production endlessly fascinating and endlessly fun. It’s not just her encyclopaedic knowledge of the mechanics – it’s the clarity with which she expresses her ideas and the simplicity and ease with which she gets results. There is no one better. * Rory Kinnear * Jeannette taught me so much . . . By the time I came to perform I felt I had enormous flexibility in my voice and could persuade anyone to do anything! * Sophie Okonedo *
