Hi there!

Paypal takes a cut!)
I'm a Bi Coastal actor currently based in New York with over a decade of experience working as an actor and director. I've learned that nothing sets you up for true success as deliberate and focused practice.
Perhaps you need a reliable reader who will make you look good for your self-tape, maybe you need coaching to strengthen your take (script analysis, storytelling, making clear, compelling choices etc.) or perhaps you're looking for someone with a warm presence who will give you space to try out different approaches. I'm here to help with whatever you need even if that's just serving as your personal hype-woman!
Training: The Freeman Studio, American Conservatory Theatre, SITI Company, Shakespeare and Company
If you'd like to schedule a rehearsal or self-tape in advance, please e-mail laurspencer@gmail.com.
