Prepared. Professional. Perfect. If you need an actor to take your production to the next level, there’s only one name to think of.
Aaron Harvie, Writer & Director Baron Sordor’s Theatre of the Doomed
Felicity, I can’t speak highly enough of not only your incredible skill and nuanced performance, but also of the weight and resonance you brought into the reading yesterday. Your narration provided a gravitas and beauty that I was thankful for in every scene, let alone your vibrant warmth that brought enthusiasm to every individual in the room. What a gift you have, to welcome people in to storied experiences through your voice, empathy, delivery and choice of nuance - it was such a great pleasure just to witness you in action, and I’m so thankful for the impact you’ve now had on this project in this role. As you read yesterday, I thought to myself ‘why can’t Felicity create every audiobook I’d ever want to read?? This is the voice we all need!’. I hope we’re able to work together many a time over, and it was such a pleasure to meet you.
