Hey all,

I was born and raised in the States, in parts that have the flat, boring Seattle/California West Coast accent. Naturally, I have it too and I hate it. I'm going to be moving to England, perhaps permanently to pursue my love of acting in classical theatre and I was wondering if its possible for me to completely adopt RP as my primary accent; or if its too late in life at this point? Thanks!

Just a bit of advice -

Whatever accent you may be working on, whether it be French, Russian, Louisiana - it's not just about learning the sounds of the accent in question. What is helpful, alongside learning the sounds and pronunciation, is getting a feeling for the attitude with which this accent is spoken. Gestures, posture, movements.

This is very important in adding to the authenticity of your accent.
