Entry requirements

Normal entry requirements include an undergraduate degree or equivalent qualification. The College is able to consider applications from people without formal qualifications who have an exceptional level of ability, practical experience and a good understanding of the musical theatre profession. Working in a professional company or companies for at least three years would substantiate this. Selection is made on the basis of an audition process, in which candidates will need to demonstrate strong practical skills in all three areas of musical theatre performance – acting, singing and dance – with an exceptional level of ability in at least two of these disciplines.
