producers and directors
Jonathan Bank, Mint Theater Company: Not only is she well prepared, thorough and a patient instructor, but our directors have found her to be a terrific collaborator because of her great comprehension of the needs of the plays. And the results have been outstanding. Amy is the only person I call for dialect work.
Martin L. Platt, Director, The Daughter-in-Law: Amy Stoller turned five New Yorkers into residents of a mining town in Britain's Erewash valley for my production of D. H. Lawrence's The Daughter-in-Law – making an impenetrable dialect a seamless part of the actors – and comprehensible! Five Stars!
Gus Kaikkonen, Peterborough Players: Amy Stoller is an excellent dialect coach, dedicated and detail oriented. Her work on my productions of The Madras House, The Voysey Inheritance, I Have Been Here Before, The Charity That Began at Home, and Educating Rita contributed mightily to their success.
Cailin Heffernan, Director, Beyond the Horizon: Thank you for the marvelous work that you did with Ron. The prep that you sent him made the hour you coached him pay off in spades. You made my actor feel comfortable and secure in creating his character.
David Fuller, Jean Cocteau Repertory: The field of dialects, to many American actors, is a treacherous plain. Amy Stoller has an incomparable way of helping actors achieve authenticity without sacrificing believability. I have used her expertise on numerous productions and will continue to do so.
Brooke Brod, Director, One Good Beating: What I appreciated most about Amy’s approach was her ability to tailor the work to the actors, to build upon the actors’ strengths and techniques. She instills confidence as well as skill.
David Scott, Distilled Spirits Theatre: Amy Stoller is a true asset: thoroughly knowledgeable about period, region and class, clear in her explanations, armed with practical resources, helpful to everyone from the least to the most experienced actor. She has been an invaluable resource to me and the companies she has coached in the US and UK. I look forward to working with her again and again.
