Off Book Auditions
Andrew Buzzeo and Cicely Whitehead
What we do
Founded in 2020, Off Book Auditions is a tool to help drama school auditionees in the UK perform their best audition.
With all sessions currently being held online, we aim to have all applicants feeling confident, secure and happy when taking part in what is for many, one of the most important experiences of their life.
We offer a free preliminary chat for anyone interested in working with us. This is a 20 minute discussion about where you are in the audition process so far, what you're aiming for and your potential speeches. It also gives you the chance to see if you would like to work with us!
​
Each session is £28 per hour, which involves working through your speeches, being given detailed feedback and a variety of techniques used by some of the best acting tutors in the UK, and an insight into how a drama school audition is run.
​
If you'd like a chat with us, or to go ahead and book a full session, please find our details at the bottom of the page.

about us
Andrew and Cicely created Off Book Auditions in late 2020 as a way to ensure more people get the help and confidence they need in preparing for drama school auditions. Having both had a lot of experience going through the drama school audition process, they understand the importance of supportive, enthusiastic and honest guidance through what is often one of the most formative experiences of an actor's life.
They met whilst on the BA Acting course at Drama Centre London in 2015, and since then have worked on stage and screen for ITV, BBC, Amazon Prime and Channel 4, as well as both being founding members of Foppish Theatre Company (pictured above).
Both have experience being on the audition panel at Drama Centre for new intake.
With more and more auditions being held online, Off Book enables prospective auditionees to practice their monologues in a safe environment whilst adjusting to a new normal.
Andrew and Cicely are both DBS accredited.
