BA Acting

The BA Acting degree offers the chance for students to tailor their studies to suit their passion and increase employability within the creative industries. 

Alongside the core acting techniques and methodologies, our students can opt to combine their Acting studies with our specialised Filmmaking modules such as Screenwriting or Digital Production. Students can also take modules in Creative Production and study Lighting or Stage Management, ensuring that graduates leave with the skillsets they need to develop a career in the TV, Film and theatre industries enabling our graduates to create their own work.

In their final year, BA Acting students take part in a Showcase in a West End theatre to which agents are invited. In Spring of the final year, BA Acting students will perform their final shows as part of the Festival of Creativity. The festival offers the opportunity to perform in local theatres throughout West London including the OSO Arts Centre in Barnes. 

Outside of teaching students are encouraged and supported to use the University theatre and studios to create and perform their own shows and open-mic nights. On top of this, as an alumni of St Mary’s, these facilities are available as rehearsal and performance spaces, encouraging graduates to develop their talents and work with others within the creative industries.
