Students benefit from specialist classes, workshops and talks from expert tutors and guest speakers while gaining confidence from regular assessment and guidance from our outstanding resident team. During the first two years, training in core skills provide a solid foundation from which to work.

  • Audio Work
  • Character Study
  • Stagecraft
  • Approaches to Text
A part of the course will consist of written project work in journals, essays, blogs and recordings. Performance and Showcase In your final year there are public productions and opportunities to perform in front of the profession. You also perform a live showcase to an industry audience of agents, casting directors and other key industry work-givers. This serves as an invaluable introduction to the profession while enabling you to network with peers. We will guide you through Spotlight and Equity membership and provide an industry career launch to present you to industry contacts to build your network. You will leave the 3 Year BA with professionally shot material to contribute towards your personal showreel.
