"I
have known Liz Caplan for many years. I have had the pleasure of teaching
and auditioning many of her students. Liz seems to bring the best out
of her students and so many actors speak highly of what she has done
for them. I too can see the difference."
-Arnold Mungioli, casting director, Mungioli Theatricals Mr. Mungioli was formerly casting director for Disney Theatricals World-Wide, as well as Livent, Inc., Canada and New York |

"When I went to Liz I had a pre-nodular condition, and one doctor told me he would have to operate. I went on vocal rest for about one month and then started lessons. With Liz's help I've been able to belt my butt off, and haven't had serious problems again. (Knock on wood!) Liz also helps me find audition material, and coaches me on songs. And best of all, she always puts a smile on my face!" - Kerry Butler |
"Here's what I know about Liz Caplan: She is classy, smart, comforting, loving, calming, and talented. She is a voice teacher, coach, therapist, and guru. She knows where the nerves and the notes are buried, and she coaxes you into getting them out...and her dog's cute, too. Need help? Call Liz!" |
"The warm ups are working wonders! thank you so much! they help millions!" |
"I've
taken a LOT of voice lessons before with tons of different teachers - and
I've never had a teacher approach singing as PHYSICALLY as you do, which I love...and can't wait to get more of. As always, your warm-ups are time-saving and highly effective. I love how each one of your excercises has a very specific purpose and isolates a particular problem or point of tension. I can feel both my instrument and my own understanding of the Voice getting better and stronger under your regimen!" |
|
"I wanted to let you know that I went on as Elphaba...and I must say that it was one of the best vocal performances I have ever had. I am a believer!!!" |
"Liz came highly recommended to me and to be quite honest, I had my doubts. I thought... What could be so great about a voice teacher to merit such praise... I mean, there are only so many vocal and breathing exercises that the human body can do, right? Well, happily my cynicism was crushed when I met Liz. Technical stuff aside, which she is brilliant at, she has a light and an energy that is nothing short of remarkable. I went to my first lesson while in the middle of tech for "All Shook Up" and was VERY vocally fatigued and really thought...'What's the point in having a lesson, I sound like a frog right now...' and I kid you not, I left feeling fresh and warm and invigorated. She is at the top of her field and I highly recommend trying to get an appointment with her." |
"Liz Caplan skill with singers as well as actors is unparalleled. What makes me a huge fan and devoted supporter is how she integrates the voice with the full body. She teaches full-body singing, in order to wholly realize the vocal potential of her students. She also greatly respects a singers individuality and vocal personality, not attempting to create a certain sound, but unleashing the best sound each specific student can create. I definitely trust her to keep me in check while singing 20 Bob Dylan songs eight times a week and helping me achieve a dexterity wherein I am able to shift seamlessly to singing a legit repertoire, with no risk of injury, loss of tone or weakness.." |
"I love the show and I have been fortunate enough to have gone on as Elphaba quite a bit. It has been such a challenge, but one that Liz Caplan definitely prepared me for...I think everyone in the show knows her vocal warmups by now, they hear me so often." |

"There is no way to do justice to the grace, professionalism, and gift that is Liz Caplan. Of course, there is her ever sunny, cheerful disposition and friendly ear, but it's also her strength of purpose and patient determination to dig down deep and unlock each of our inner voices that
makes her so very special. I consider myself so fortunate to be her |

Studying with Liz Caplan has changed my approach to singing on every level. In the more than three years we have worked together, she has combined phenomenal technique with tailor-made specifications to meet a huge variety of professional demands. Her tireless enthusiasm and expertise have empowered me physiologically and emotionally to become a better singer than I had ever imagined. It’s like physical therapy and good, old-fashioned psycho-therapy for your vocal chords! |

" When I first came to Liz for the national tour of Tick, Tick... Boom!, I had a very limited experience with musical theatre and had always thought that it was a form of theatre that would be beyond my abilities. Liz has turned this attitude around for me...I have a new confidence in my abilties and her exercise tape has helped me survive a grueling and vocally challenging show over the past 5 months. Not only have I survived vocally...I have excelled and reached new levels of ability because of her techniques. I would never do a show now without the exercises she has taught me...her techniques are my pre-show drug." |

"I began studying with Liz Caplan after years of not singing. After one lesson, she instilled in me the faith I needed to perform on-stage with confidence. Over the span of just a few months, I have found my vocal range back, and she has given me exercises that have helped to build the stamina I need to get through the grueling eight performance a week schedule without losing my voice! Liz Caplan finds your voice and makes it better, instead of forcing someone elses voice on you. Best of all, she does it with joy and humor and somehow makes it fun, which I believe singing should be! I really look forward to my classes with her." - Molly Ringwald |

"One of the greatest assets of studying with Liz is that I have always felt at ease and free in my lessons which is paramount to good singing. Being in a lesson and feeling uptight i.e. holding tension in your body makes singing almost impossible. I also feel that, especially working on Broadway, an actor needs to be able to do everything. As a singer this translates to being able to sing pop, rock, folk, country, showtunes, classical and everything in between. Liz teaches you so that your voice can be adaptable to different styles and not just one genre." - Lisa Datz |

"With the vocal demands of Broadway these days, and maintaining a healthy flexible strong voice for eight shows a week for long periods of time, there is no one better equipt to keep you out there singing" - Kaitlin Hopkins |
|
"I love that "YOGA FOR THE VOICE" Liz has taught me. she has brought me back from the brink of laryngeal hell, and I thank her" - Deven May |
|
"Liz Caplan has helped me to understand the vocal muscular structure. The vocal cords are like other muscles in the body: warmed up properly, they will function correctly. Like a ballet barre, good technique lets you dance without thought of where or how to lift my leg, throw a pirouette - it just happens because the technique is there to support it. The same I have discovered about my voice, through the guidance of Liz, of course!" - JoAnn Hunter |

"I have nothing but high praise for Liz. I have applied her teachings religiously since 1996 and have substantially expanded what my voice can do. Now, I can sing any note in any kind of voice. Now, I have unlimited range. Now, I can sing 8 shows a week without ever losing my voice. I know how to deal with days that my voice is tired. Hell, I know the difference between vocal fatigue and vocal damage. Under Liz, there is never any damage. The fatigue comes from working so often, and that's all because of Liz." - Eric Millegan |

"Liz Caplan absolutely helped me find my voice. I would compare my vocal training experience to that of an injured knee that needed healing: when you strengthen the surrounding muscles you protect and strengthen the weaker one and then you are up and ready to run the marathon. But most importantly, she never lets you BS yourself." - Danielle Gerber |
