Course summary
BA Musical Theatre is a distinctive, conservatoire-level programme for talented students dedicated to developing their skills in acting, singing, dance and music. We’re looking for students who want to train with us and aspire towards a career in the competitive musical theatre industry. We want to work with people who are original, talented, committed and inspired by collaboration; performers of the future who will celebrate and share their skills in a wide range of professional contexts.
PerformYour education here will begin with a focus on core skills and processes. Our aim is that you will graduate from this programme as a confident, versatile artist ready to work in the profession. You will take part in industry workshops and classes which will allow you to develop your skillset in advance of two full-scale productions and an industry showcase in your final year of study. Our unique programme offers a pathway for developing actor-musicianship skills, along with opportunities for students to explore their creative voices within new musical development projects.
SucceedOur close relationships with many of Scotland’s national companies mean that our students will have the invaluable opportunity to network and garner visibility among casting directors, agents, creatives and leaders in the UK arts scene through many diverse opportunities. Workshops and productions are directed by creatives working within the industry, who often call upon RCS students for external opportunities and projects during their studies. Our graduates consistently gain industry representation and continue to work across the arts and entertainment sectors; in the West End, on Broadway, in national and international tours, with national companies, regional theatres, and in a variety of television and film projects. Many of our graduates also go on to create their own companies and produce work, creating change within the industry in positive and meaningful ways
