"The work of dialect coach Joel Goldes, I'm happy to report, is superb."

-- The Orange County Register, 'The Drawer Boy'

I paid a visit to La Mirada to coach the accents in Driving Miss Daisy, including 2/3 of the cast from the Rubicon's 2004 production, Michael Learned and Lance Nichols.

I returned to the Rubicon Theatre in Ventura to coach the dialects for William Inge's Bus Stop, including Missouri, Mid-Atlantic, Ozarks, and Montana.

I helped playwright/actor Yehuda Hyman with his dialects for The Mad 7, an IN-Festival Spotlight Production. Yehuda and I met several times at my studio, then had a couple of phone sessions once he was in rehearsal in New Jersey.

My past acting and directing experience uniquely qualifies me as a dialect coach: not only can I guide you in the subtleties of a new accent, I can also help you explore sound possibilities within the character's given circumstances.

I look forward to working with you.
