Robert Younis
" Robert was amazing! Full of amazing notes with a fantastic ability to convey them through coaching. So fun to play and will definitely book again! Thank you Robert! " ~ Ash Kahn (Booked!)
I love helping actors bring their best authentic selves to their performances and give them a scene partner/reader that engages them so the scene feels alive! I know this may not be for everyone but if it's one you're looking for let's connect and have some fun!
" Robert is my new favorite reader and coach!!!! He is an amazing cold reader, a fantastic scene partner and gave notes only when requested which actually were the perfect notes that made the scene a take :) I can't wait to work with him again and see what magic he conjures again!
