The 2-year accelerated BA (Hons) degree in Acting is delivered at The Courtyard in London’s Hoxton and the course is validated by Buckinghamshire New University. It is as unique as students are: based in a working theatre environment able to attain a degree level qualification in just two years equipped with highly practical, industry-relevant skills training taught by tutors with extensive, current industry experience given the opportunity to work with external directors from renowned companies for second year production modules The schedule for this programme is intense. It is expected that students will be in the building from 10am until 5.30pm Monday to Friday and will participate in a series of productions and an industry showcase, as part of the programme, as well as complete a range of practical and written assessments. We also offer regular Courtyard Collectives open to students and the public, for students to informally try out and showcase their performance skills. As a small, intimate training school we feel especially able to support and encourage the specific needs and talents of each prospective actor. Full support is given for both the academic and practical parts of the programme. Our aim is to equip you with a repertoire of skills needed to succeed in the performing arts industry and to also to support your personal development.
