Short courses
We are still accepting applications for our short courses running from July 2020 onwards but no payment will be taken. We are also accepting applications to our Youth Company: Theatre Production, currently scheduled to run from May 2020. Please continue to check our website for further updates.
There is an acting 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. Alternatively, come and get creative with us by taking an intensive, practical theatre production course such as lighting design. Learn with RADA's faculty. You can use the filters to find the course that’s right for you.
