Introduction and History
The course was started in 1994, and is designed by Mary Hammond and Karen Rabinowitz with the aim of providing a multi-skilled training programme in a professional environment. The students work with professionals and are treated as a theatre company.

In 1995 it was granted the equivalent of registered graduate status by British Equity, which recognises the quality of the training offered, and allows graduating students certain privileges on entering the profession.

The course leads to a postgraduate performance diploma in Musical Theatre.

Mission Statement
"The aim of the Course is to give a thorough professional musical and dramatic training to students of postgraduate (or equivalent) level to equip them for performance in contemporary musical theatre.

The driving force behind the course design is the integration of the three core disciplines: Singing, Acting and Movement. Taught by leading exponents in the field, it reflects the advances in the understanding of vocal physiology and the research in the science of the voice.

"To bridge the gap between the acting singer and the singing actor."
