Course summary


Become a ‘triple threat’ musical theatre performer as you train in the disciplines of acting, singing and dance while exploring the traditions and contemporary practices of musical theatre on stage and screen.

Taught at The Brighton Academy, Musical Theatre BA (Hons) trains you to be a versatile, imaginative, and employable performer. Its embodied approach develops graduates who are adept at working in a variety of genres across the highest levels of the Musical Theatre industry, as well as preparing you for postgraduate study. Training in acting, singing, and dance is delivered in equal importance, with the highest possible standards expected from students in every discipline. Develop the essential practical and creative skills, along with the theoretical knowledge you'll need to become a self-motivated artist in the musical theatre industry. This rigorous Musical Theatre degree is designed to train you to become a versatile, imaginative, and employable performer. You'll have the opportunity to follow one of two educational specialisms that best match the area of the industry in which you're aspiring to have a successful career. On both specialisms, you'll undertake practical modules in singing, dance, acting, and voice training. From this technical base, you'll develop your creative processes by considering how to apply your techniques to an essential repertoire, in order to realise creative and musically intelligent interpretations of materials.The dancer/singer specialism has an emphasis on dance technique and history, developing theoretical and technical knowledge of a range of techniques within musical theatre alongside an intense signing regime. The actor/singer training has an emphasis on a range of singing and voice techniques, and an intense acting programme which includes, but is not limited to, breaking down text and scenes, creating characters, and remaining in the moment. Performance is emphasised throughout, and you'll continue to enhance your technical and stage skills through a series of performances across a variety of genres. Our aim is that you'll graduate as a technically skilled professional, well-versed in collaboration and personal reflection. Collaborative projects require you to work at industry standard, and within professionally-recognised time frames.
