Enthusiastic with a cool edge – Monique is going to shake up the voice industry.
Everyone wears a uniform of some sort. Real or imagined.
In the vocal wardrobe of Monique Dawes, her top hat and tails are pressed and pleated.
This is Monique’s eager to please uniform of performance. Her voice is ready, side-of-stage, waiting for her que to bounce into the limelight. And while she waits she stands to attention.
But given her stunt training, her version of ‘standing to attention’ is on her hands up-side down.
The uniformed voice over talent has a few other skills. Drawing attention as they do in front of a crowd, they are at ease providing step by step information.
Easy to follow and easy to remember. They give direction and take you through a complicated process of forms, clicks and drop down boxes. They also reappear when you
Need them the most to reassure you you’re on the right track.
Another skill you can hear in Monique’s voice is her talking to – not at – people younger than herself. An older voice can be heard as cynical or fake.
Choose a childish voice and the information doesn’t carry the weight of instruction you wanted it to have. Vocal uniforms like Monique’s imply knowledge that she is willing to share.

Stunt Performer Bio
Monique Dawes is an Australian actress, stunt performer and voiceover artist with extensive national & international performance experience.
Monique has worked on major film and television shows including the newly released Elvis directed by Baz Luhrmann, Preacher, Clickbait and Wentworth.
Monique spent 2 years in China as a lead stunt performer in the opening cast of Water Word, performing for Actions Horizons as Helen at Universal Studios Beijing. With an undeniable love for fitness and stunts, this role was a perfect fit for blending both passions.
Monique was a proud member of Troy’s Team during her time in Beijing, a premiere foreign action team who design and produce content for international films, television, games and various platforms.
Cheeky and robust, Monique is seen as a true triple threat within the industry. Not only as a highly trained dancer, but also as an outstanding Soprano & Musical Theatre belt vocalist. The combination of these two styles makes mixing a well loved genre of Pop into their songbook a great addition.
As an advocate and proud non-binary in the LGBTQI community who has taken on the nick name “Money” by their colleagues. Monique is truly a power force of
energy and passion.
