Training to become an actor is an intensive process which requires curiosity, courage and commitment. At Guildford School of Acting, we’ll help students develop their imagination, range, skills and technique. Students will learn how to prepare for rehearsal, how to rehearse and how to use independent and proactive processes to achieve their best work possible for stage and screen.

Drawing on the teaching and practices of Stanislavsky and Lecoq, our BA (Hons) Acting course will develop your technical skills – from singing to stage combat. Students will learn important critical and evaluative skills, and develop your imagination through play, improvisation and scene work.

Students will also take screen acting classes and complete film and radio projects that allow them to explore the processes needed in today’s recorded media.

Students will attend classes and workshops with guest speakers to develop their professional network and employment opportunities. As they come to the end of their course, they will complete their transition to professional performer with a final showcase presentation in a West End theatre with invited agents and industry guests.
