Isobel 's Mum

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the team at Best. 

Yesterday, we watched Isobel in her school Christmas play- she had to audition for the part she wanted. She took the audition very seriously and learnt her piece off by heart. She got the role she wanted! She sang with such enthusiasm. We thought you’d like to know about how all the skills you teach at Best filter through to other places too!

St Albans and Ware Singing Teacher

MOLLY TELLO

Molly started performing at the age of 3 beginning with Ballet and since then has always known it was her love and passion. She began her career not long after in TV and Film, such as Holby City, Eastenders and Ali G The Movie, and hasn’t stopped since, always rehearsing for at least one show at a time.

Working at Best is Molly’s weekly get away and bundle of happiness who says, “I love nothing more than watching the students at Best grow as not only performers but individuals too. I am proud to have worked as Bests Hertford singing teacher for over a year now and plan to stay for many years to come. Without the stage, life would be a whole lot duller.”

LOLLY PLATT

Lolly Platt is an actor, singer, dancer; specialising in improvisation, devised theatre and jazz. After training in Musical Theatre at READ College and Trinity Laban, Lolly went on to train in Improv performance and teaching under Seamus Allen, leading to her becoming deputy Improv teacher at Read College. During her time teaching and training at Read College, she was also rehabilitating from a sudden onset of a nuerological disorder. Though extremely challenging, the valuable lessons it taught her of finding new ways of creating and existing are some that she wishes to pass onto her students. 

 

Her latest credits include: ‘Sweet Egg/Cloud’ in Children’s puppetry musical THE GRUMBLE CAT; ‘Diana’ in THE DUCHESS OF BUCKINGHAM REGRETS TO INFORM YOU… ; ‘Singing Student’ and voiceover artist in Trinity College London’s infomercial; and Dancer in ‘Venice Film Award’ winning short DESIGNATION LIMBO. Lolly has also worked as a dancer, actor, singer and choreographer in a variety of smaller projects. Lolly and her Assistance Dog Koda have a deep passion for accessibility in the arts. At the core of her teaching is a continuous reminder that young people can always belong in the arts, no matter their background or so-called ‘limitations’ and should be who they are unapologetically. She hopes that Improv can help young people communicate better, embrace themselves and others and learn that with restriction comes creativity.
