"Jennifer White has been a constant throughout my producing and directing career. Almost every project that I have worked on has involved Jennifer, and benefited from her talents and dedication. Jennifer is one of Australia’s leading dialect coaches, but she offers so much more than that. She is a gifted director and acting coach. With Jennifer, it is never just about accent – it is far more holistic, covering vocal placement, rhythm and acting intention. I can not recommend her highly enough … there is a reason that I go back to her show after show. She is the best!"

SANDRA BATES

Artistic Director (1986-2016), Ensemble Theatre

Hired Jennifer as Dialect & Foreign Languages Coach on 19 productions for the company including "Death of a Salesman" starring Jacki Weaver, "Rain Man", "Tuesdays with Morrie" and "Ladies in Lavender": Website

"Jennifer White has an excellent understanding not only of dialects from around the world but an enviable ability to draw excellent results from the actors she works with.

She also recognises their strengths and weaknesses, in no way making any actor feel uncomfortable about their skills."

PETER COUSENS

Former Artistic Director, Kookaburra Musical Theatre Company

Hired Jennifer as the Dialect & Voice Coach on "Company" directed by Gale Edwards & starring David Campbell, Simon Burke, James Millar & Christie Whelan Browne

"Jennifer has shown herself to be a fine dialect resource for actors, directors and producers, and her commitment and expertise is a huge benefit to the industry as a whole.

She brings not only her grace and sense of humour but also the resources of an expert in accent and dialect and the sensibilities of an actor.

The understanding of process and the actor's needs are unique to Jennifer and an invaluable asset to a company."
