Our BA (Hons) in Theatre and Performance prepares you to become a versatile professional capable of working across various theatre and performing arts disciplines. You'll engage with multiple creative fields, from acting and directing to playwriting, dramaturgy, and technical theatre production.

Our faculty consists of working professionals, and the curriculum features frequent workshops with leading guest artists who will impart their knowledge. These connections provide networking opportunities while learning from some of the city's most dynamic theatre practitioners. You'll also have numerous chances to present your creative work and develop original performances.

This Theatre and Performance BA (Hons) program focuses on hands-on learning. You'll acquire thorough understanding of theatrical production processes while actively creating and presenting your own work throughout your studies.

From your first year, we'll collaborate with you to develop original productions, with multiple platforms to present your creations. By your final year, after building essential skills and confidence, you'll produce and perform an original work at one of London's cultural venues. This includes a collaborative project where you'll handle all aspects - writing, directing, performing, and promoting - giving you complete, practical theatre-making experience.

While acting training forms a core component, the program aims to provide comprehensive industry knowledge spanning writing, directing, design, and stage management. Performance classes cover acting techniques, vocal training, movement, theatrical theory, and more. This well-rounded approach helps you discover and develop your artistic identity.
