About Acting Coach Vicki
Hi! I’m Vicki, a trained performer, acting coach and founder of Project Spotlight Studio.
I hold a First Class BA (Hons) in Performance from the University of the West of Scotland, alongside a PGCE with Qualified Teacher Status.
My background combines professional performance training with experience in education, which allows me to support actors in developing their craft in a structured, supportive, and practical way.
I previously founded and ran a successful theatre school and have worked with performers of all ages, helping them build confidence, strengthen technique, and develop their performance skills.
Alongside 1:1 actor coaching, I run acting classes designed to help students develop creativity, confidence, and a strong foundation in acting.
I am also launching Project Spotlight Studio, a training space for actors of all ages who are serious about developing their craft through professional guidance and structured training.
My coaching focuses on areas such as acting technique, character development, screen performance, and audition preparation, helping actors build the skills and confidence they need to pursue opportunities within the performing arts.
I believe acting is a craft that develops over time through training, curiosity, and practice, and I’m passionate about helping performers grow in both confidence and ability.
My Approach
Anyone Can Learn to Act
I believe that acting is a skill that can be developed through training, practice, and curiosity. Whether you are completely new to acting or looking to refine your technique, the right guidance and environment can help you grow as a performer.
Building Confidence
Confidence is at the heart of great performance. My coaching focuses on helping actors feel comfortable taking creative risks, exploring characters, and expressing themselves truthfully both on stage and on camera.
Developing the Craft
Acting is a craft that develops over time. Through structured training, scene work, and practical exercises, actors build the skills needed to create authentic performances and continue growing in their work.
