LA Acting Coach Crystal Carson to hold intensive workshop in Dublin next month

Acting Coach Crystal Carson
In association with ORion Productions, LA based Acting Coach Crystal Carson will take her three day intensive acting workshops to Dublin from May 11-13.

Carson, who has been holding workshops in LA for over 22 years, cites Ireland’s recent Oscar successes as the primary reason for her taking her workshops to Dublin. “I was so enthralled by the fact that for such a small country, the Irish were taking centre stage in the 2016 oscar nominations. I have always been a huge fan of Saoirse Ronan and was delighted to see her up for an Oscar. Ireland seems to have such a talented pool of actors and because of this I really want to work with Irish

The Acting Coach will be bringing her ‘Let Go Of The Lines’ and ‘Live the Life’ practice to The LAB studios in Dublin. Students will have the chance to learn this approach used by actors in Hollywood.

Carson is particularly skilled at accommodating actors' individual methods. She is able to guide actor’s utilising their emotional, intellectual, and spiritual sensibilities to generate a character's life. Through this approach, each actor's unique, quirky, multi-faceted personality surfaces through the character in unpredictable yet appropriate ways.

Carson has coached talent such as Paula Abdul (‘Drop Dead Diva’), Jennifer Beals (‘The Chicago Code’), David Boreanaz(‘Bones’), Dylan Bruce (‘Orphan Black’), Ricardo Chavira (‘Desperate Housewives’), Tricia Helfer (‘Ascension’, ‘Battlestar Galactica’),Stephen Rider (‘Daredevil’) and Brian White (‘Scandal’, ‘Mistresses’, ‘Beauty and the Beast’). Just to name a few.

Sinéad O'Riordan, actor/producer and founder of ORion Productions is facilitating this workshop. Sinéad recently played Garda Joanna Mitchell in Maurice O'Carroll's debut feature film, ‘Dead Along The Way’, a role which she also consulted on with Crystal. "When I first worked with Crystal in California I knew that I had found a rare talent, and I immediately asked her if she could bring her workshop to Ireland, so that Irish artists who do not have the means to travel to LA could avail of it and learn from one of the best. When Mohammed can't get to the mountain and all of that..."

Another notable Irish proponent of Carson’s classes is actress Jenny Dixon who plays Kerri-Ann in ‘Fair City’. The two met when Jenny went to Hollywood to study acting and they have continued to work together since. Jenny said: “I simply could not recommend Crystal Carson highly enough, an A+ and then some. Love her!”
