Our vocational conservatoire actor training course is designed to provide you with skills to become a successful independent professional actor for stage, screen, and recorded media.
Our approach focuses on you as an individual, providing the support and training enabling you to find your unique voice as an actor. Through this course students develop the creative and intellectual independence of an artist able to sustain a lifelong career and shape the industry of the future.
Alongside core disciplines of voice, movement and acting techniques, you will engage with new technologies, giving you a range of creative and transferable skills.
Learning happens in our world-leading training facilities, including high quality rehearsal, movement and performance spaces, our four fully equipped theatres and flexible studio spaces.
Throughout the course you have multiple opportunities to perform. In your final year you undertake full scale performances in our on-campus theatres, and you’ll also perform as part of our London Season in a professional theatre. You’ll take part in an industry showcase in a London theatre from where our students regularly sign with agents.
Our graduates work internationally and in the UK, undertaking roles in renowned West End shows as well as at the Royal Shakespeare Company and the National Theatre. Increasingly our graduates also go straight into film and television careers.
