“[Colum’s] strong presence made him very quickly an enormously important fix point within the group, since he is able to link great calmness, openness and a good sense of humor with an absolute professional attitude, total dedication to whatever he does and to others. He is not only a mature performer, but also a wonderfully inspiring teacher and guide. He is a very good team player and has excellent qualities to initiate, execute and reflect creative processes. I can only highly recommend him for teaching positions.”
“During the rehearsal period, Colum has proven to be of tremendous help… and this is where one of his finest qualities shines through - his ability to solve problems. He is innovative, versatile, generous and supportive and has often afforded me a sigh of relief after having found a solution for a seeming unresolvable conundrum.”
“His proficiency in using Commedia dell'Arte masks and his ability to engage in singing and dancing were particularly noteworthy. (...) His generosity in relating to his peers and the young students participating in the International Stage allowed Mr. Colum to play a central role in the creation of the [Commedia] Scenarios, which were later presented on tour in France and Veneto. Therefore, Mr. Colum is fully qualified to participate in the research, practice, and dissemination of the Art of Commedia both nationally and internationally.”

I wanted to say I throughly enjoyed the class and I felt I learnt so much from Colum. He was such a positive and encouraging teacher and he made it feel like such a safe environment for me to explore a new technique and not worry about making any mistakes or getting things wrong.
Just a mail to tell how nice that was to learn with you .
You have a really amazing way to teach with energy some stories and the very strong technics.
Incredible! comme toujours! Thank you Colum. You're so talented at taking complex theatre theories and make them easy to understand and interpret and play with. it's so much fun to be in your class. I come out feeling like I've learnt so much physically and mentally and without taking notes or feeling heavily burdened with information. It's fantastic! Pleeeeeeease keep doing workshops forever (haha :D)
“ Every class is enriching, I learn so many new things about theatre each time. ”
"A little late but I'd like to chime in! This is a class I really looked forward to because I needed it. We worked extensively on voice/breath and I left the class confident that I could continue to practice those techniques. Colum always makes the lessons approachable and fun. I realized by watching my baby-who is learning to speak- that she instinctively is practicing almost all of the exercises we had done during class. It's fascinating! So, if I need a refresher, I might just watch how she babbles."
"Great. Colum provides a safe and trusting environments so that as an actor you can really explore your potential!"
Professor Morgan is a very strong teacher. He is very enthusiastic about theatre, and in turn has made me also more enthusiastic about theatre. He is very knowledgeable of the topics he teaches and encourages class participation often during lectures. He makes everyone in the class feel welcome.
He is super knowledgable about all things theatre history and it was very cool to hear about his story. I also liked learning the history through performing.
Professor Morgan was good at explaining theatre history. I learned a lot about history in general and the history of theatre.
I just wanted to comment to say I really love Colum Morgan's class. He really knows his stuff and was very
interesting to learn under. I've taken a lot of theatre classes with a lot of different teachers, and I would highly recommend the department keeps him
on the staff.
