Richard Delaney coaching actor, Joshua Griffin

At the heart of my coaching is the 'Find Your Playful' philosophy.

 

I blend techniques from Stanislavsky, Michael Chekhov, and The Nine Viewpoints to help you elevate your craft through a psychophysical practice.

 

My approach emphasizes action-oriented, physical work to free your impulses, ignite your imagination, and encourage creative risk-taking.

 

By balancing playfulness with rigorous craft development, we unlock your unique artistic voice and transform your performances.

Whether you're just starting out or are a seasoned professional, my methods are adaptable to all experience levels. I work with actors at every stage of their career, from newcomers finding their footing to established performers looking to rejuvenate their craft.

This holistic approach not only enhances your technical skills but also nurtures your artistic growth, helping you to continually evolve as a performer throughout your journey in the world of acting.

You can find out more about the foundations of my practice on the 'My Values' Page.
