ABOUT DAVID JOHNSON DRAMA

David Johnson was arguably Britain's most successful independent Acting Tutor, was is the only independent tutor to see students win BAFTAs, Oliviers, Tonys, Golden Globes and an Oscar!  David  recently received the British Empire Medal for his contribution to young people's drama.

​

Following David's death, Jakki who worked alonside him for over 10 years, took over as Principal. She works on a wholly practical basis using David's methods drawn from many years in 'the business.' She works on: acting skills, both improvisational and scripted, speech and voice work T.V. film and theatre script, audition technique, character study, emotional workshops and camera work and many other approaches. Her goal is to develop the 'fully-rounded' actor who should be able to sustain a career in an ever changing profession.

We work on an individual basis with each member but believe in group sessions to allow interaction, although groups are kept small to allow for personal work.
