Information About

Drama School





ENTRY AND APPLICATION PROCESS


Entry to drama school is usually through an Audition . Some schools make this a two-stage process. Places on an acting course are limited (usually well below 100) so those who fare best at the audition are selected. Most academies state that applicants must be over 18 years of age.

For Acting degree courses, auditions will involve the performing of certain Dramatic Monologue s, but may also include a Singing activity. This varies from academy to academy. For Musical Theatre degree, the emphasis is on showing one's talent as a Singer . Most colleges offer recall auditions, in which students being considered for entry onto a course are brought back to audition again, demonstrating their talents further.


COURSE CONTENT


The courses offered by drama schools are heavily based on practical work, after all, their aim is to train students as professional Actor s for stage and camera work. Students are required to be enthusiastic and motivated in order to meet the demands offered by the course.

At the end of the final year (usually the third) most drama schools stage a performance to which Agents and Casting Director s are invited, helping to build the future of graduates.


FUNDING



United Kingdom


In the UK, funding varies from drama school to drama school. Some drama schools are now part of Universities, such as the Central School Of Speech And Drama , which became oart of the University Of London in 2005. These tend to charge similar tuition fees to universities. However, some drama schools, like RADA , are private schools, and can charge up to 4 times as much as other academies. Student loans, drama awards and scholarships can help provide students with the funding they need.
