Actor Needs Yonkers Accent!

[Susan Apker]

I can do the general New York accent, but I need to find out if there is anything I could add that would make it specific to Yonkers.

Please contact me if you have any suggestions, input, etc.

Depending on your audience, you need not worry about whether it be a Yonkers, Brooklyn, Bronx, etc... If you have/had--late to comment, mea culpa--general you should be/have been just fine. FYI There are many factors to consider when researching and studying local or regional accent/dialects in any language especially English. Good luck and break a leg!!!!
