Drama Classes

After running the Helen O’Grady Drama Academy with Nick, my husband, 

I now teach one to one private Drama Classes from home. I want to offer the sort of classes that I wish I’d had as a child - a place to explore different characters, scenes, genres, periods in history whilst developing a strong sense of self through acting exercises and games.

LAMDA Exams

I have been coaching students for LAMDA exams for many years, and in 2025 all passed with a Distinction.

These are practical exams set by the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, and are open to Adults as well.

I also offer

Audition/Interview/GCSE Practical/Presentation practice

Public Speaking for the Terrified workshops

Role Play

I have worked extensively as a Story Teller, Role Player and Character Actor for the Museums and Art Galleries in Sheffield, performing as historical and fictional characters for events and festivals.
