About this course

Our Acting degree trains you to become a versatile and employable voice, film and stage actor.

  • Prepare for a portfolio career. Train as an actor who can work across a range of media including theatre, screen, radio and voiceover.

  • Perform and create with professional venues and organisations including Ustinov Studios, The Rondo Theatre and Theatre Royal Bath.

  • Build the skills, experience and resilience necessary to become a professional in the industry.

    What does it take to be a professional actor? Skill and confidence, certainly. We also think it helps to have a strong portfolio before you even graduate.

    Our Acting course trains you in all aspects of the business while nurturing the versatility, creativity and resilience needed to succeed in acting and a range of performing arts careers.

    In your first year, you’ll build the foundations through technical skills classes in movement, voice, singing and comedy. Your second year explores and tests these skills through projects such as full-scale theatre productions, short films, commercials, presenting jobs and voiceovers for audiobooks and games. In your final year, you’ll focus on your profile and perform to public audiences to build your CV. You’ll also work with industry professionals to expand your network of contacts – all before launching your career.
