Programme profile
This programme is “designed to provide the highest quality vocational education and training”. The programme involves rigorous and practical professional training, business and entrepreneurial development, and historical and conceptual studies. Whether you are on stage, backstage or behind the camera, you will be involved in a large number of major production projects.
Although principally based around the work of Stanislavski, the programme does not dictate a particular approach to acting, but rather gives the individual student the opportunity to develop as an independent creative practitioner, with their own approach to acting and performance.
In this programme, You will gain core foundational skills in acting, voice, movement, and singing, through class workshops, scene studies, small and large group presentations. These skills are developed by exploring challenging classical and contemporary texts, physical theatre, acting for the camera and radio, devising, and interdisciplinary projects. Finally, you will employ your learning in a series of public performances, working with professional production teams and directors. All three years are underpinned by the study of theatre history, criticism, performance theory, and business, delivered through lectures, seminars, class-based exercises, presentations, and research projects. Together with a final year of dedicated professional preparation, we give you all the tools required to prepare you for a career in the performing arts industry.
Degree validated by Liverpool John Moores University
