Ellen Taft

I work primarily as a voice, speech, dialect and Shakespeare teacher. I hold the Advanced Diploma of Voice Studies ( ADVS) from the Central School of Speech and Drama, London.

As an actor I have played many parts with dialects and specialize in RP ( Standard British English), Irish, Am. Southern, Brooklyn, German, French, Spanish, and can speak German fluently, French and Spanish with good accents, but need a script.

I've played parts in German, French and Spanish. Also directed plays in German for University of Minnesota. Former Editor of The Actor's Handbook, and The Publicity Handbook
