Laura Garnier

Director Actor Storyteller Teacher

I am passionate for Theatre and storytelling whether that be leading as a Theatre Director or Acting coach, or whether it be taking direction and learning from the best as an actress or voiceover artist.

Since the first lockdown in 2020, I have been running sight-reading play nights for professional actors performing both privately and publicly to virtual audiences and industry professionals.

I am the founder of Actors Training Network a platform focusing on professional acting training, creative business strategy, branding, peak performance techniques, & wellness.

I am classically trained under co-founder of Drama Centre London’s Christopher Fettes whom I learnt a lot about what it takes to be a director. I have a home voiceover studio and experience working in motion capture.I have a Post Graduate in Acting, & a BA (with Hons) in Theatre Studies from The University of Kent.
