For nearly three decades, Warner Loughlin has empowered actors. She has coached Emmy, Golden Globe, Tony and Grammy winners, including talents like Oscar-nominee Amy Adams, Glen Powell, Ryan Reynolds, Matt Bomer and White Lotus star Michelle Monaghan to name a few. Known for her warmth and intuitive approach, Warner’s technique shatters the myth that an actor’s past emotional traumas must be the fuel or foundation for their work.
Spelled out in her beautiful book, The Warner Loughlin Technique: An Acting Revolution, Warner’s method is imaginative, practical and psychologically deep, giving actors a safe and effective way to access emotion and create extremely nuanced and unique performances. Warner studied Contemporary Literature and Shakespeare at Oxford University and received her BA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Episode Preview: Warner Loughlin: How to Prepare Your for Character
Warner Loughlin: Sometimes I read scripts just for fun. I know that’s nerdy, but you get so much more information. Sometimes we don’t have the script, right? We gotta go to that character breakdown that casting gives us. I take those breakdowns with a little tiny grain of salt, because you’re not quite sure who might have written those.
Robert Peterpaul: Sometimes they don’t have the full script, either; the person writing those.
Warner Loughlin: Right. But it does give us a little flavor and a flair. I also read all the other characters, because sometimes a breakdown will have all the other characters listed.
