The BA Acting and Performance at LSBU offers a conservatoire-style training in the heart of London, developing the next generation of skilled, creative, ‘industry ready’ actors, performers, directors and theatre makers.
You will study, learn and train with leading industry professionals in the heart of London’s cultural quarter working in close proximity to, and with, some of the worlds’ most respected theatres and companies.
As a student of the BA Acting and Performance you will undertake an intensive conservatoire style training focusing on specialist stage and screen acting techniques combined with creative composition and theatre making strategies designed to develop you as a highly flexible performer ready for the demands of this challenging industry.
Acting students study weekly text, movement and voice classes throughout their first year. Under the direction of our professional voice coaches all students will be trained in the acclaimed Estill Voice Training ® model (EVT) pioneered by Jo Estill. EVT is widely recognised throughout the industry as the gold-standard of voice training.
Your acting skills will be applied to a series of professional-style briefs including scene studies and small and large-scale productions allowing you to showcase your work regularly throughout the course. You will be taught by industry and academic practitioners delivering the best contemporary acting training methods whilst simultaneously developing your ability to make your own original theatre work, creating a portfolio of flexible skills and training fully suited to the professional, creative world of tomorrow.
