This intensive course covers fundamental aspects of actor training performance. You will develop skills in various performance areas such as children’s theatre, screen acting, and devising and directing theatre productions, as well as developing an understanding of the performance industry.

In addition, you will undertake preparation and training for auditions for future industry opportunities and higher education courses. To inform and enhance your learning and development, you will be expected to undertake independent rehearsals, study and research. This course is aimed at students who have ability and interest in drama, acting and theatre studies.

You will be involved in a range of performances which will develop your skills as a performer, and some of those performances will be selected and then toured. 

We also work with professional performers and companies within the industry to provide excellent work experience and workshop opportunities for dancers and actors. These include Amy Dowden from Strictly Come Dancing, Vanhulle Dance Theatre, Ellis Theatre Arts, Flexus Dance Company, Imagine Ballet, Scare Acting, One Dance UK,  National Adventure Farm, Alton Towers, Derby Theatre and The Brewhouse.
