Patsy Rodenburg OBE is recognised as one of the world’s leading voice teachers and coaches and also as a renowned authority on Shakespeare. We talk about how storytelling has made us human, the immense power of saying ‘I don't know’, the importance of generosity, the significance of realising that you are more powerful than you think you are, the importance of working on yourself, how creating a ‘safe space’ boosts everyone’s creativity, the crucial moment of defining what ‘success’ means for you specifically, the important skill of absolutely loving the ‘journey’ and so much more.
Patsy has worked regularly with the best-known actors of British theatre, including Dame Judi Dench, Sir Ian McKellen and Daniel Day-Lewis, as well as many of the biggest stars of film and television including Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Orlando Bloom, Hugh Jackman and Natalie Portman.
She has worked with theatre companies all around the world; some of these include the National Theatre, the RSC, the Moscow Art Theatre, Complicite, Cheek by Jowl, and Comedie-Francaise. Patsy has authored several books on the subject of voice coaching, including ‘Speaking Shakespeare’, ‘The Right to Speak’, ‘The Need For Words’, ‘The Actor Speaks’, ‘The Second Circle’, ‘Power Presentation’ and ‘Presence’.
