Performing and Production Arts
Our courses give you the chance to experience a wide variety of modern, contemporary and practical skills and techniques in the performing and production arts.
We want you to collaborate in your learning experience, so our industry-experienced tutors will help you to identify your areas of interest and areas for improvement.
We also have an exciting partnership with the Reading Rep Theatre, that offers mentoring, placements, and workshops to our students.
You’ll develop practical performance skills for using voice and movement to communicate effectively with an audience. Teamwork, self-discipline and confidence are core skills that you’ll develop on the programme, and you’ll also get valuable experiences from directing and leading your classmates. Not only are these skills and experiences vital for the creative industries, but they also prepare you for other career paths.
Our performing arts programmes are great preparation for university, vocational or dance college.
They build your core skills in acting, dancing and stage management, so you can aim for a career in the performing arts sector.
Every year, the arts and culture industry contributes £10.8 billion to the UK economy. As of 2020, the performing arts industry in England has around 8,700 new job openings annually.
