Our innovative Acting MFA builds on the success of GSA’s current postgraduate course by extending the intensive training currently offered on our one-year Acting MA.

Our Acting MFA is highly selective and intensive. You’ll train over two years, taking classes in acting for stage and screen, voice, and movement, exploring a wide range of theatre traditions and performance styles in rehearsal projects and public productions, and participating in professional development events and masterclasses. The second year of the programme includes mentored opportunities for students to develop their own teaching practice and creative work.

This unique course is led by expert teachers with extensive first-hand experience in the professional theatre sector in both the UK and internationally.

Our campus boasts great transport links to London, so you’ll benefit from GSA’s close proximity to the heart of UK theatre in London’s West End.

Gain valuable experience in actor training techniques for stage and screen, write and devise performance projects, and learn about the contexts of production to prepare you for a range of careers in the creative industries.
