Part-Time Acting - Vocational
1.5 terms (part time)
This part-time evening acting course takes place over three evenings each week and delivers the core elements of Mountview skills training while developing creativity and artistic identity.
Not in a position to commit to full time training? Mountview has developed this part-time vocational training option to enable students to fit study around work and other activities. This structure, combined with competitive course fees, makes this course one of the most accessible courses of its kind in the UK.
The Part-Time Acting course is a great option for students from a wide range of backgrounds – whether you want to develop your skills before progressing to a BA or MA training option or want to try vocational drama training out of interest or before committing further. The course also lends itself to topping-up existing skills and provides a valuable basis for those choosing to enter the industry without formal training.
Graduate Destinations
Graduates of the part time programme have gone on to secure places on BA and MA courses at Mountview, RADA, Guildhall, LAMDA, Arts Ed, Italia Conti, Central School of Speech and Drama, Rose Bruford and GSA, as well as going directly into work in the industry.
Course Content and Delivery
The course is taught from September to February on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 7pm – 9:30pm.
Skills classes focus on the core discipline areas of acting, voice and movement. The content is an equal balance of:
- skills training
- audition preparation
- performance-based work
While the course is part time in its delivery, its content and intensity place high demands on students and require dedication. Students develop technique, repertoire, and confidence for further opportunities.
