Actor Musicians are in high demand and this course offers distinctive and accredited practical training for actors who have musical skills and play instruments.

What you'll study

This course offers distinctive and practical training for actors who have musical skills.

You will be guided by experienced staff, including industry professionals, who will help you to develop your actor-musician skills through practical classes in movement, voice, music and approaches to text and character. You will also develop your existing musical skills for use in a variety of performance contexts. Importantly, you will explore how these skills interconnect.

Your imagination to create, lead and make music will be developed whilst acting classes will explore the musicality of performance. You will need to be able to play at least one instrument to a good standard in order to get the best from this course, and we do not typically consider ‘voice to be an instrument.
