BA in Drama & Theatre Arts with Acting (Honours)
Goldsmiths, University of London — London, England
About this program
The BA Drama: Musical Theatre at Goldsmiths, University of London is a three-year, full-time honors degree designed to prepare versatile performers for careers in musical theatre and the broader performing arts sector. Students develop comprehensive skills in acting, singing, and dance through rigorous training with industry-experienced faculty, including one-on-one vocal coaching from a lecturer who has trained West End performers and movement instruction from tap teachers with West End experience. The program emphasizes training as a collaborative company, where students share responsibilities across all aspects of theatre production—from performance to administration—maximizing both artistic experiences and professional networking opportunities. The curriculum progresses through performance benchmarks: a first-year cabaret (typically at an off-West End venue), second-year development of new work, and a third-year major licensed musical production. Beyond performance skills, the program encourages students to develop talents as directors, choreographers, musical directors, stage managers, writers, dramaturgs, designers, and arts administrators, grounded in critical study of musical theatre history, theory, and ethics.
