About Parisa
Hello! I'm Parisa Shahmir, a British/Iranian performer with over a decade of experience in the world of musical theatre. After graduating from The Musical Theatre Academy in London, I've been fortunate to work on incredible musicals across the UK and the USA. My journey has taken me from the West End to national tours, with performances in shows like: - Cool Rider Live (Lyric Theatre West End) - MAMMA MIA! (UK/International Tour) - The Last Ship by Sting (UK Tour) - We Live In Cairo (American Repertory Theatre, Boston) - Fisherman's Friends (UK/Canada Tour) I understand the excitement and challenges that come with performing, whether you're stepping onto the stage for the first time or preparing for a major role. My passion lies in helping performers grow in confidence, find their unique voice, and connect deeply with the songs they sing. I love creating a supportive and encouraging environment where you can explore, take risks, and discover your potential.

Parisa is one of the most inspiring teachers I’ve ever worked with. She brings so much warmth, creativity, and knowledge to every session. I came to her with just a few rough ideas and no real confidence in my songwriting, and she helped me turn them into full songs I’m truly proud of. Her ability to listen, guide, and gently challenge me pushed my writing to a whole new level. I always felt seen, supported, and encouraged to explore my own voice. Working with Parisa genuinely changed the way I think about songwriting.
Working with Parisa has honestly been such a game-changer for me. She’s super open and supportive, and it never felt like there was any pressure or judgment—which made it way easier to be real and try out new ideas. Her feedback is always on point and she’s amazing at helping you figure out what you’re really trying to say in your lyrics. I’ve grown a ton, not just as a songwriter but as an artist overall. Every session left me feeling more confident and more inspired.As a complete beginner, I was nervous about songwriting, but Parisa made the process feel easy and enjoyable :)
She’s patient, encouraging, and explains everything clearly and I’ve learned so much about what goes into making a great song!Parisa was an absolute legend as a songwriting teacher. Not only did she give me loads of practical tips tricks and techniques as well as a bunch of extra reading (specifically around writing for musical theatre, which is what I'm learning to write songs for) but she was so positive and encouraging. I don't just feel like I'm a better songwriter now, I just feel more confident as a person. I can't rate Parisa highly enough. What a gem.
