- Summary:
- This video explores the widely acclaimed work of Cicely Berry, Voice Director of the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC). From rehearsals at the RSC in Stratford-upon-Avon, to workshops in Moscow, New York, Seoul, and the favellas of Rio de Janeiro, Berry's work is documented in diverse languages, producing new understanding of the power of voice, language, and communications. As much as she is a voice director, Berry is also a political activist and humanist. Whether working in a penitentiary or on a film set, Ms. Berry strives to help people find their authentic voice, as she believes that only when one has found their true voice can they find their place in the world.
