Challenge yourself, strengthen your own practice, and develop a wide understanding of the performing arts industry, with this Performing Arts course. You’ll work with our highly-qualified and experienced staff, along with visiting industry professionals, gaining a high level of support to enable your personal and professional development. A wide range of extra-curricular activities are offered to prepare you for the full-on schedule of a professional performer, including additional skills classes and corporate performance opportunities.

We foster the industry-specific knowledge, thinking and practical skills required of performing arts practitioners, and promote how subject-specific skills can be transferred to other employment fields. Technical classes use repetition of physical action for the training of voice and movement.

You’ll select and engage with appropriate techniques to ensure that rehearsals and performances function safely, creatively and professionally. You’ll develop highly effective interpersonal and social skills, and demonstrate the entrepreneurship and self-motivation required of a professional freelance career in the theatre.
