This innovative and rewarding course sees the Department of Performing Arts offer its first conservatoire?style training programme.

It’s a competitive industry so you’ll need to be up for the challenge, but over three years you will get to enrich your imagination, build resilience and consolidate your own working methodology. In short, you’ll develop the artistic skills to forge a successful career as an actor.

The course combines elements of traditional actor training with specialist content in community and theatre-in-education work alongside outdoor and site-specific performance. So as well as mastering body, voice and movement skills you may find yourself performing in schools or at summer festivals.

This is a highly vocational programme with a conservatoire-style intensity of focus. It is delivered by our talented teaching staff who have worked around the world as actors, directors, stage managers, and technicians. You will work in a variety of genres and repertoires, from classical to contemporary, and take part in regular performances so that you graduate ready for professional life on the stage, screen and radio.

There are excellent studio and training facilities on campus, including purpose-built rehearsal, movement and performance spaces. You’ll also have access to two HD TV studios with green screens, a computerised radio studio and film-making equipment. And you will receive excellent career development and support during your study, including preparation for agents, casting directors and auditions.
