Overview

Musical Theatre at Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama combines hands-on experience and specialist tuition led by prominent tutors, directors and coaches. From week one, you’ll delve into an intensive schedule, which include individual singing lessons and repertoire coaching, acting, dance and vocal skills classes, workshops and rehearsals.

Overview

You’ll experience an exceptional level of individual attention and career coaching, and all the benefits of working as part of a small ensemble.
Our course doesn’t conform to any single philosophy of musical theatre training. Instead, you’ll be introduced to many influences and strategies, allowing to make educated choices about the methods you’d like to incorporate into your own work.
Your training features a comprehensive range of acting, vocal and dance lessons, offering you a range of industry-led approaches that you can use in your professional career.
You’ll have acting skills classes and projects with experienced tutors from our acting programmes, working with improvisation, character, relationships and text.
Singing classes are held one-to-one with both technical tutors and vocal repertoire coaches, focusing on developing safe and sustainable techniques and repertoire. These will cover in depth knowledge and command of vocal approaches for performance, as well as vocal physiology.
