Description

Laura trained at the Guildford School of Acting and Tring Park Performing Arts (partnered with Arts Educational Schools, London). 


She has performed in many capacities (instrumentalist, actor and musician) across the world, from West End shows, actor-musician Shakespeare to playing on the world’s stage at the FIFA World Cup in Qatar, 2022. 


She plays a multitude of instruments including saxophone, piano, flute, clarinet and guitar. Being also a skilled  loop system user (like the one Ed Sheeran uses), she can create any song in the catalogue from the drum beat, the bass line to the main guitar riff in no time at all! Check out her website and instagram for performances, one being a looped version of Seven Nation Army


On top of this she is a teacher and director having led workshops at GSA, LAMDA and Tring Park, helping people from all backgrounds nurture their talent and boost their confidence. 


Lastly, she offers private tuition for acting and saxophone playing, from practice sessions to advice on drama school preparation, she’s got you covered! Her website is below for you to get in touch as well as her instagram.

Laura and I discuss her passion for music, learning the saxophone, acting and her time training at GSA both before and during the lockdown years. As well as her time in Othello at the Watermill Theatre in Newbury where for one show she had to perform Desdemona at a moment’s notice! 


Furthermore, her demanding schedule in Qatar for the recent World Cup and serenading the public with her sax on stage, in the London underground after dark and by the famous piano in St Pancras station. Watch one of those performances below:
