We are dedicated to world-leading training in the dramatic arts. Craft, openness, rigour and collaboration are at the heart of what we do. This is where we realise dramatic potential.

We are pleased to share the work of the Academy.

There is a short course at RADA for everyone; whether you are a complete beginner, want to build on your existing experience, or simply get a taste of our training.

Evening workshops exploring Voice, Movement, Contemporary Text and Classical Text.

Explore key aspects of Shakespearean performance, including monologues, sonnets and voice, and perform an online version of a Shakespeare play.

A semi-intensive training in acting skills over six weeks for anyone at the beginning of their acting journey – particularly those who are thinking about going to drama school.

We are delighted to let you know that applications for the following courses are now open for September 2022.

Our new two-week short course Greek Tragedy takes you into the ruthless and vengeful world of Greek theatre, exploring the work of its three major tragedians through their telling of the same story – that of Electra and Orestes.

We caught up with RADA Associate Director Nona Shepphard, to find out more. Read the blog post here.

Please help us secure RADA’s future and keep the door open to the next generation of talent.

The pandemic has had a devastating impact on RADA’s finances and our ability to deliver world-class training. We urgently need to raise £3.2m over the next four years to recover and rebuild, and to support our students. This campaign is Stage Critical.
