What will I learn?

Over three years of practice-led learning with leading industry professionals, you will be immersed in the techniques of acting, text, voice, movement and performance for stage and screen with the industry always at the forefront of our minds. Our goal is to develop flexible and versatile actor-entrepreneurs who feel empowered within their craft across all mediums, spaces and platforms.You can also take this course with a foundation year, which means you it will take you four years to complete the course full-time, and eight years to complete the course part-time.Performing arts programmes at UEL develop an existing base of core skills in practice, research and portfolio development, and apply these to specific industrial contexts in collaborative projects that simulate professional practice, and which integrate with the theatre, media and immersive experience industries.The BA Acting for Stage and Screen course will develop a core set of skills and will also develop transferrable skills (linked to UEL Core Competencies and the Career Passport) for the creative industries. The integration of both staged and screen-based acting technique, dramaturgy and creative collaboration with technical and creative areas mirrors the nature of the contemporary industrial context, in which traditional career pathways have been superseded by more diverse skills sets and practice applied across disciplinary and industrial contexts.
