BA(Hons) Musical Theatre

Combining training in acting, singing and dance, you’ll develop performance skills in all three areas while engaging with traditional, current and future forms, including digital technologies.

Throughout this Musical Theatre degree, you’ll grow your abilities through technique classes, exercises, scene work and project rehearsals of classic and contemporary musicals. Dance and singing sessions will sit alongside individual tutorials, professional development workshops and public performances, helping you to become a highly versatile and industry-ready artist.

You will:

• Study within AMATA’s creative and dynamic performing arts community, where actors, musicians, dancers and technicians work and play in a dedicated facility, which is also a professional performance venue

• Access state-of-the-art facilities, including extensive sprung-floor dance studios, practice rooms, recording studios and technical and music resources

• Benefit from AMATA’s year-round performance programme, which attracts top artists and performers

• Work with highly skilled and experienced staff with expert knowledge of the performing arts industry.

We consider all applications on their merit and potential. We invite all applicants to an interview day or audition to allow them to demonstrate this, along with what inspires and motivates them in their field. Applicants can also show their portfolio or give a performance, depending on the course. We welcome applications from all subject backgrounds, whether you’ve specialised in STEM, the arts or the humanities.
