EMPOWER YOUR JOURNEY WITH ACTING COACHING

MY STORY

I’m Dan Caren, an agent and acting coach with a lifelong passion for acting and the performing arts. From the age of 10, I dreamed of becoming an actor, and that ambition has shaped my career every step of the way.

I studied Drama at Queen Mary’s College before earning a scholarship to ArtsEd in West London, where I completed my degree in Acting. During my training, I discovered a love for mentoring young talent and began teaching at West London Drama Training at the age of 19. Today, I am proud to serve as the Principal of this thriving theatre school for young performers.

In my twenties, I gained invaluable experience working for a casting director, which deepened my understanding of the industry. I now work at one of London’s top talent agencies, where I collaborate on the teams representing A-list actors alongside other top performers. My role involves nurturing and guiding the careers of exceptional talent, ensuring their success in an ever-changing industry.

I am also committed to supporting emerging actors. Through my work with leading drama schools like Central School of Speech and Drama, LAMDA, and ArtsEd, I’ve helped aspiring performers prepare for auditions, navigate the transition to professional work, and secure representation.

As an actor, I’ve had the privilege of appearing in feature films and award-winning television shows, sharing the screen with BAFTA and Emmy Award winners. My journey has given me a unique perspective on both sides of the industry, and I remain dedicated to helping others achieve their dreams in the performing arts.

MY SESSIONS

I offer a range of sessions tailored to your needs, ranging from courses at Arts Ed in Chiswick to one off self-tape sessions. I offer drama school audition coaching and casting preparation. I am happy to help you dip your toe into the acting word or to hone your craft. I have run confidence building classes ranging from wedding speeches to helping children with school play try outs. We can work at your place or at my home or over Zoom, wherever you feel most comfortable. 

I want to help you succeed.

MY COACHING STORY

I have been teaching actors, young and old for over 20 years. Working with casting directors and talent agencies has given me a unique perspective unlike most acting coaches.
I have coached soap stars, pop stars, models, drama school hopefuls and established professional actors as well as complete beginners.
I am the Principal for West London Drama Training and I regularly work with Linden Staub modelling agency to develop their clients. I enjoy seeing actors succeed and people grow. This is why I love to coach.

THE TYPE OF PEOPLE I COACH

I love to teach and to coach. You might be an actor looking for a professional eye to give you honest and constructive feedback on that big audition. You might be a parent looking for someone to help embrace your child's passions. You might be an agency looking for someone to help develop your clients. You might be someone looking for the ins and outs of getting into drama school or you might be a company looking for a different type of team building.

 

Whoever you are I want to know why you are here. What made you seek out an acting coach. How can I help you?
