It is over 25 years since the vocal practice of Dr Nadine George of Voice Studio International was introduced to the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and Scottish theatre. The work was then developed and researched within performance training and professional theatre productions where it had a significant impact on rehearsal performance practice, the role of the voice specialist in production and on the application of the vocal work to directors, the direction process, and new writing. The work became the core vocal practice of the Conservatoire in 2006, when Professor Ros Steen established the Centre for Voice in Performance.
Growing Voices charts the growth and development of the work’s impact on training and the profession through a range of responses from directors, voice practitioners, playwrights, actors, staff and students, who speak in their individual voices about their relationship to the work.
This first publication from the Centre for Voice in Performance is a testament to the profound impact of Nadine George and her method:
‘…the technique opened a whole new thing which has been amazing – the voice, the communication, the vibration and resonance and the energies.’
John Tiffany,Director (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Black Watch,Once)
