Annice simply has a strong and effortless connection to text. Annice originally hails from the Black Country in the West Midlands and is proudly British Asian.

She trained at one of the top 5 UK drama schools, The Oxford School of Drama, on the 3-year acting course. Whilst there she received exceptional classical training in Shakespeare, Chekov and 1920’s scripts as well as contemporary texts and poetry. Her voice training specialised in Linklater work and allowed her to confidently explore the use of accents and sound to create stories.

Annice frequently uses an Indian accent in her work, having spent a lot of time at her grandparents corner shop growing up who were first generation immigrants from Punjab, she has a strong connection to the accent. In addition to this, she has also played a range of characters originating from Afghanistan to Yorkshire!

Annice loves being versatile with her work and finds joy in being able to switch into the worlds of different beings.

Outside of her acting work Annice has done a lot of voice coaching work within the corporate and medical sectors including PwC, OC&C, NHS and the civil service.

classical text to help others to connect which is something she is hugely passionate about.
