Acting and Performance Making Bachelor of Arts (with Honours) - BA (Hons)

Why study BA Acting and Performance Making at Goldsmiths

Join a bold, process-driven degree for creatives who want to forge their own path in contemporary theatre and performance. Equip yourself with the skills, insight, and confidence to lead in a changing world.

* You will become an ‘actor-plus’: you will develop confidence and agency as an actor and performance maker, while gaining skills in critical thinking, devising, directing, writing, designing and producing.

* Studying with us will enable you to work in theatre, performance, screen, digital media, and across the wider creative industries, and will equip you to create, innovate and initiate change as an artist in your own right.

* You will learn how to collaborate in different contexts, from working with a director to applied theatre contexts to devising and originating your own performance works.

* Goldsmiths is recognised internationally for nurturing actors and performance makers who are politically engaged, critically informed and ecologically conscious, and who are shaping the future of theatre and performance.

* You will be introduced to varied training methods, developing as an artist who is able to reflect critically on your own process, journey and the ethics of collaboration.

* There will be classes in rehearsal ethics, characterisation and ensemble skills, movement, voice, stage, screen and audio genres, text-based and devised work.

* Our training helps you strive for excellence without asking you to change who you are: we pride ourselves on being a diverse community of makers and thinkers.
