"Dossy Peabody's own experience as a gifted actor informs her work with you. In a safe and supportive environment, she guides you to aim for your highest level of work. With an amazing sense of perception and sensitivity, she brings you to your own truths - to learn to trust your heart's wisdom - to trust your instincts. You will instantly trust her, because you can. You will have fun, too. You work in a gentle and rigorous way that cannot help but lift you up to your next level of acting - it is a powerful collaboration between coach and actor. It is exhilarating!"

Moira McCarthy

Dossy at work

“Dossy is a ‘connector extraordinaire ’. I recommend her highly as an acting coach for any level from student actor to experience professional. She is a talented actress, a compassionate advocate for the arts and a very fine human being. She was the leading actress at Gloucester Stage Company in the 80's and her capacity for creating trust, joy and connection between her fellows in the rehearsal hall was extraordinary. It marked her as a leader and mentor. I learned a tremendous amount from Dossy over a three year period.”
