Musical Theatre FDA (Italia Conti)

Italia Conti’s FdA Musical Theatre course is designed to nurture and develop innovative and individual musical theatre performers, who embody and apply specialist skills and techniques supported by grounded knowledge of industry practices, contexts, and the emerging requirements that empower graduates for a sustainable career in musical theatre.

The course is validated by University of Chichester. Full government funding is available through Student Finance England for Home students. 16 year old students can also access student finance for this programme.

Students that undertake the FdA at 16, are able to complete three years of training and graduate with a degree at the age of 19, extremely valuable for extraordinarily talented young performers who have already undertaken considerable vocational training.

Students studying on the FdA study a programme of 600 hours per year.

Students can study 300 additional vocational training hours, that are not assessed and do not contribute to the study of the core FdA programme.

The additional hours are not compulsory, but we do advise that students who undertake more intensive training will see additional development in their practical skills.
