Studying at ALRA on this full-time 15 month course prepares students for a career in the stage and screen industries.

Following three taught terms, where the focus is firmly on the core areas of Acting, Voice and Movement, you will spend a further two terms applying your developing techniques to live and recorded performances. You will work on two theatre productions, a short film, showcases in a West End Theatre and a practical research project.

This comprehensive programme enables graduates and others with relevant experience to acquire and develop the practical skills necessary to sustain a career in theatre, television, film and radio.
