About

We are thrilled to announce the launch of a unique BA(Hons) course at Associated Studios!

Validated by our new partner Chichester University, we are offering a full BA(Hons) in Musical Theatre (Professional Performance). This course will be delivered as an accelerated degree, meaning that you can complete your studies in only 2 years of training rather than 3! 

We do this by delivering you an exciting jam packed course (30 hours contact time per week minimum) for 30 teaching weeks per year. 

Throughout the course of your study with us you will develop your skills in all key disciplines required from modern musical theatre artists, including Singing, Acting and Dance. You will also be involved in projects to put your skills into the contexts you will find in the industry including: Performing in a straight play, performing in a cabaret, taking part in a monologue slam night, writing and producing your own musical theatre production, taking part in full scale musical production, and taking part in both our digital showcase and industry panel week.

We know London can be an expensive place to live and study, which is why we decided to create a 2 year BA(Hons) degree course which allows you to train without compromise. We want to help talent grow from people from all walks of life, and we believe this course can offer the diversity and opportunity that we could miss from those incredibly talented artists who would not be able to afford 3 years of training.

We don't compromise on the level or quality of your training either - with all of our core tutors, industry professionals and full complement of skills classes, projects and performances, connecting to create an exciting and unique training experience, designed for the modern industry and modern musical theatre artists.

Students also may be eligible for access to the governments 'Tuition Fee Loan' and 'Maintenance Loan for Living Costs' schemes, the BA(Hons) at Associated Studios is now one of the most affordable, accessible and exciting places to train and grow in the UK!

Please note that as of the date of publishing this page, the University of Chichester has still to included accelerated degree costs, but costs shown below are accurate.
