Course overview

This course will give you a solid grounding in actor training through a blend of online and in-person learning. You'll explore key skills and acting techniques, develop a robust rehearsal practice and grow in confidence, preparing you to pursue a career in acting.

The accelerated nature of the course is designed to engage participants who have studied drama previously but have not had opportunity to immerse themselves in practical, vocational training.

Applications are reviewed and offers will be made on a rolling basis until 31 January 2025. We would therefore advise you to submit your application as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

  • Participants must be able to demonstrate an intellectual, creative and practical ability to undertake intensive, accelerated vocational training.
