BUT...
We designed our own 2-Year course to be so much more than a normal HND in Acting and Performance.
We've focused on what's going to get you employed - because that's the real goal and added a lot MORE to the course.
Our course is recognised by the industry - our students are eligible for membership to Equity, the Actors' Union and Spotlight, which means when you graduate, you're ready to start auditioning for work. Our past students are working in the industry all over the world in television, film and theatre.
If you're determined to become a professional actor, if you're creative person, a problem solver, with a growth mindset and the grit to succeed in this business, you should audition for one of our 12 places. Unfortunately to maintain the very highest quality, we limit this opportunity to only those with the best potential.
We have designed a 2-Year Acting course (including HND Acting and Performance) that includes over 20 Public Performances, Stage Combat, Movement and Voice Training, Acting for Camera classes, Monologue training, Performance Psychology, Shakespeare, Business of Acting coaching, and a full THREE week run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe!
We'll also include:
A Serious Amount of Acting for Camera - to help you get ready to work.
Watch our students in the multi-award-winning TRILEMMA.
Spotlight Eligibility - to help you get access to work as soon as you graduate.
A Professional Showreel - to help you show the world what you can do on camera.
A Voicereel - to help you use your own voice to your advantage in radio and over voiceover jobs.
Headshots - leave with professional headshots that match your branding and help you get work.
Our staff team are award-winning filmmakers, directors, writers, and producers
Fees and Funding
The fees for this incomparable HND Acting and Performance are £7750 per year for UK residents (plus a £250 Admin Fee)
And this is how you can afford to do this incredible course.
For eligible Scottish students (and other eligible citizens who are resident in Scotland), you can have £1205 of your fees paid for by the Scottish Government through SAAS. You can also pay the remainder through your Student Loan.
Remember, at present, if you are earning less than £31,000 a year after graduation, you will pay NOTHING back at all.
If you are from the rest of the UK, you will have to pay the fees yourself. If you wish to do so, we accept monthly payments instead of a lump sum, and we offer a small discount for the fees being paid in advance of the course starting.
So what's stopping you from auditioning for us?
