This exciting and dynamic full-time 2 year course has an emphasis on learning skills current to the performing arts industry with the aim of increasing your employability. It is a production-based course for students who wish to develop skills in the performing arts. The course is highly practical, but it also demands academic ability. We use Project Based Learning (PBL) approaches which give you industry relevant experiential learning.
This course will provide you with a stimulating and challenging programme of study that will be both engaging and memorable, delivering the essential subject knowledge that you will need to progress successfully into further study or the world of work. You will undertake a substantial core of learning in the Higher National Certificate in year one, and can build on this in the Higher National Diploma in year two with optional units linked to your specialist area of study.
Content is continually refreshed so that it is closely aligned with professional body, employer and higher education needs. We provide a varied approach to assessment that supports progression and we offer assessment relevant to the local economy, thereby accommodating and enhancing different learning styles. We deliver a qualification designed to meet the needs and expectations of students aspiring to work in an international performing arts environment.
Further Than The Edge Productions C.I.C are running weekly Open Level Acting Workshops in two Camden venues. A motivating, fun and safe space for beginners, and people with experience who want to develop existing skills.
These are open level workshops, so no previous acting training is required, but you must be prepared to work with other people - communicate and collaborate, and move around the space. You will also read/use extracts of playtexts/scripts.
This is a great place to start before moving on to more formal or professional level training, or to keep up your existing skillset.
Funded by the Cheshire West and Chester Youth Opportunity Fund, the sessions by Little Actors Theatre aim to empower participants through various activities.

Most workshops will be held on Saturday afternoons from 2pm to 4pm, with some taking place on Tuesday evenings from 5pm to 7pm at Neston Town Hall.
