​I have worked with Ian with regards to song selection
and interpretation for audition.
The points Ian addressed and took me through in the studio were the exact points of reference the panel brought up in the auditions, and helped me to stand out and be successful in auditioning for the role.
​Ian's vast knowledge and very approachable manner make him a standout vocal and audition coach in Melbourne. I could not rate him more highly.

Please say a big thank you to Omar for preparing Tiahna with her audition for Madagascar Jr. She got one of the lead roles as Gloria. She is super excited. We couldn't have done it without Omar's help and support. Thank you once again.

We have a number of our [Theatre Blacks] Diploma of Musical Theatre students attending Ian Nisbet's studio and they always come to our classes beautifully prepared and confident in what they are doing. The progress in his students even after only one or two lessons is just incredible to witness. As well as having a really thorough technical knowledge he really understands Musical Theatre and how to help students find their personal niche as an artist which just revolutionises their self-confidence!  You are in very good hands with Ian!

His work ethic, high standards and relentless positivity have contributed to his position as a role model and pillar of the arts community. It is my constant and enduring privilege to continue to collaborate with Ian on my creative projects.
