TESTIMONIALS

I loved working with you. You took me out of the corner of my own perspective and guided me to see the values I had cultivated over the years. And, therefore, my own. You helped me see possibilities and paths. And for that I am deeply grateful.

Thank you so much for the amazing work you do. Taking a step back from our conversation we had this morning really helped me get a grip. I had a wonderful rehearsal today – and am feeling so so so much better. Really you are so gifted in what you do.

David Diamond’s workshop was not only enlightening and informative, it gave very practical information that could apply directly to making a living in the challenging world of professional theatre. The tools he helps develop are both easy to use and empowering as they allow one to feel confident in tackling all the complicated aspects of the theatre world.

David Diamond transforms perspective. He helps us envision ourselves and our life's work by seeing us with loving generous eyes, a voice that knows exactly what to say in our moments of doubt filled vulnerability, a delicate touch that encourages and gets us (me) to take the steps we need to grow. David is able to point and invite us on to our next paths. His gentle wisdom, specificity, and experience are priceless. I highly recommend working with David and am grateful to have been able to do so, you will be too.

These sessions have been so incredibly helpful I cannot fathom a way to thank you. For example, I don’t recall talking as deeply about my work to anyone. I also never considered that I have done some good work. It just never seemed to add up to anything significant—-yet.

I do have to say the workshop helped me to better articulate the type of theatre I want to make, which was helpful with grad school apps. Thank you for that.
