What will I learn?

Our BA (Hons) Acting programme offers rigorous, practical, conservatoire training for a career as a professional actor. Through practical skills training and individualised artistic development, you'll acquire the skills to sustain a career as a working artist in theatre, television, film and recorded media - serving the performance industry now and in shaping its future. Over three years, you'll develop your skills in acting, movement, voice and performance-based research. Training will be practical, physical and intensive. You'll be required to be fearless, as you acquire new skills and challenge those you arrived with. Training will include ensemble skills classes, one-to-one coaching, skills in context, seminars and rehearsals culminating in a final year season of performance that will serve as an industry introduction.Storytelling is a collaborative artform and collaboration is at the core of all we do at Leeds Conservatoire. As an Acting student, you'll spend your first weeks of training developing an ensemble practice that will transform a cohort into a collaborative theatre company. Throughout training, you'll be given the opportunity to collaborate with theatres, creative partners and leading artists in the region. We actively encourage cross-programme collaboration with artists from other disciplines. Our ambition is for you to establish a creative network in training, originate live performance and take both with you into the the theatre and creative industries.
