Summary

The Musical Theatre programme is a three-year BA Honours degree, comprising a two-year FdA (Levels 4 and 5), followed by a BA (Hons) Top-Up (Level 6). This structure allows for maximum flexibility, enabling you to achieve a qualification after two years, to continue for the full Honours degree or to join us from another institute for your final (top-up) year only. The Musical Theatre programme is designed to inspire you through the three disciplines of musical theatre.
