“Shane Ann has given me a wonderful gift: a fully loaded tool kit to help me unlock and explore any kind of text while keeping my instrument strong and supported. Whether I am working my way through a Shakespeare soliloquy or a dialect farce or quickly scanning voiceover copy in a casting office waiting room, I constantly find myself drawing on the voice and text tools I acquired from Shane-Ann.
Beyond being incredibly knowledgeable, she brings a limitless generosity of spirit into the classroom, tailoring her approach to the needs of each individual student. With her help, I identified my own individual red flags for vocal tension and learned how I personally needed to work to produce a broad range of vocal expression without doing damage. I am immensely grateful to Shane Ann; by giving me the keys to unlocking greater specificity in my work, she has made me a far better actor.” – Matt Harrington
