"Nathaniel's class was one of the best that I've taken in NYC. He brought concrete, adaptable techniques to the table for preparing and performing audition material. On top of that, he helped me change my mindset about auditioning, and now instead of feeling anxious I look forward to getting in the room to show what I've got!"

-Kristen Dimercurio, Coaching Client

"Nathaniel's approach to musical theater makes the work feel deeply important rather than commercial. His ferocious commitment to specificity has encouraged me to leave no stone unturned in the preparation of my audition material."

-Jenny Piersol, Coaching Client

"I grew immeasurably coaching with Nathaniel. His caring and inspiring instruction fosters a judgement-free atmosphere, encouraging personal discovery while providing a safety net as you push against boundaries. In addition to being a tremendous teacher, he is also a cheerleader. It is rare to find a teacher so genuinely invested in your success. Nathaniel will truly take you under his wing and help you fly."
