Tom Clare

I have clear pronunciation, a youthful, confident cadence and natural delivery. My voice can be cast anywhere between 20s and 30s.
My singing voice sits in the tenor range, and I most comfortably sing in more contemporary musical theatre, though I am quite able to sing in a more legit style.
My native accent is Southern English (Home Counties) though I am well-versed in a great variety of accents, with exceptional Received Pronunciation, General American and Yorkshire in particular. My base of comfortable accents includes a selection of British regions, including Edinburgh, Scouse, West Country and Cockney, and further off accents such as Irish, Australian and German.

 Doświadczenie

Most recently, I've been a part of some immersive theatre productions with Ludens Theatre Company, and lent my voice to recordings used in other productions of theirs. I have also worked with an Italian company called CompaniesTalks, delivering inspirational talks at corporate events, both live and recorded on camera.

For many years I have worked facilitating drama workshops in schools across Britain; storytelling and entertaining children naturally has kept my voice engaged and active, and has allowed me to play a variety of historical and narrative characters, such as Charles II, Guy Fawkes, Florence Nightingale and a slew of different Shakespeare characters.

I have also been working as a tour guide for three years now, educating and entertaining tourists of all kinds, keeping my voice versatile, and adjusting my delivery as needed. I have run the tours at the Royal Opera House, and on open top buses, and a horror comedy Ghost Bus as well.

I also performed open air Shakespeare for several years at Canterbury Shakespeare Festival, requiring strength of voice in large parks and open spaces, and clear enunciation at all times.

 Specjalności

Other than voice acting, I have my singing voice, and I am a good mimic for singing voices.
I am also an exceptional cold reader, and in addition to my wide range of accents, I have an excellent ear for new ones, and I have a strong understanding of Early Modern Literature (i.e Shakespeare) and I have a strong grasp of historical Original Pronunciation for such texts.
