Poppy is such a fantastic teacher! She brings such energy and detail to every aspect of her work, and takes the time to adapt her style to meet each person's needs.
I originally met Poppy nearly 15 years ago whilst collaborating on a theatre project. Throughout our working relationship and subsequent friendship her knowledge of the industry and skill as a director and coach has continued to be second to none. She is always dedicated to the actors she works with, nurturing their talent, listening to their concerns whilst motivating them to meet their goals. She is, in essence, a people person who creates a safe and productive atmosphere in her rehearsal space.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Poppy as your acting coach. She’s passionate, talented and, most importantly, truly cares about her students and helping them maximise their potential. Working with Poppy is confidence boosting and fun!
Poppy is a talented and experienced theatre director while also a patient and knowledgeable teacher. All in all an excellent tutor!
