Hello Leila!

Our Acting degree is a really practical course that tries to work on skills to create a well-rounded performer. For example, in just the first year students work on acting for the stage, look at traditional performance and learn practical skills on how how to act for camera.

We're quite well known for our commitment to small class sizes, which for a degree like acting can prove to be especially beneficial as students get a lot of personal tuition on how to develop in to the type of actor they want to become!

In terms of the vibe here, it's quite a special community feeling here at Marjon, where students mix across courses and you're certain to make friends beyond those studying acting.

If you've got any more specific questions about Marjon or the acting degree here then feel free to give me a shout!

Stephen.

It’s a little bit chaotic at the moment because the lecturers quit. Hopefully it’ll be sorted by September but don’t have high expectations.

We've hired some excellent new lecturers with really varied experience across a range of acting disciplines. We want to make sure that as many different styles of acting can be covered in the course as possible and our new lecturers will be able to deliver that with their history of being involved on screen, in theatre and beyond!

If you've got any other questions about our new lecturers or the course as a whole then feel free to give me a shout.

Stephen.
