Musical Theatre (Cabaret)

The only course of its kind in the UK, our BA (Hons) Musical Theatre (Cabaret) degree provides you with a traditional training in Musical Theatre with additional preparation for a career in cruises, holiday resorts, and stage entertainment. Musical Theatre (Cabaret) supports the aspiration of many musical theatre performers to combine their stage experience with a career in holiday park, entertainments and cruise work. The course provides employers with talented graduates in an area where skilled practitioners are in demand and where young performers in particular are welcomed.

We have a well developed network of employers and agents with whom we can work to efficiently introduce our musical theatre trained students, who will be studying Jazz, Ballet, Tap, Ensemble, stage acting and singing as part of their training to career opportunities in the industry. You will receive traditional training in every aspect of Musical Theatre (singing, acting and dance) alongside a specialist focus on developing specific techniques and skills from a wide range of stage entertainment and performance options. Staff teaching on the programme have headlined on Holland America, Royal Caribbean, Cunard, Crystal, Radisson, Princess, NCL, Saga and Fred Olsen.

You will also perform at a graduate showcase for agents, bookers, and industry professionals, which is also professionally recorded. This means that you will graduate with a professional showreel, headshots and a vocal rep folder, giving you everything you need to start your career within the performance industry.
