Acting, Performance and Dance

Overview

Our acting courses show you what it takes to turn natural talent into a career and make dreams of performing on stage or film a reality. Whether you’re a proud musical thespian with a passion for amateur dramatics or want to build up your experience while aiming for the big screen or Shakespeare, you’ll learn how to channel characterisation through physical performance. At the heart of any form of acting is a story – and how you decide to tell it.

On these exciting, hands-on 10-week courses, you’ll learn how to embody characters, express across screen and stage and learn the core skills of improvisation, writing and physical theatre. Modelled around our BA (Hons) course, these are all about doing it for real.
