PROSPECTUS 2011

TRY
...and keep on trying. Competition for some of our courses is intense. But we know that talent ignores educational or social background and flourishes wherever it can. Some of our most celebrated graduates left school without any qualifications, others have Oxbridge degrees; they include a deaf actor who has just played a major role at the National Theatre. To us they are all equally important, all equally and uniquely talented. This is what makes RADA special: our focus on the individual. We keep our courses and our classes small, sometimes two or three students to a teacher. We dont believe the world needs hundreds more actors or technicians or designers, we believe it does need exceptionally well trained individuals to meet the challenges of an ever-diversifying industry. Recent technical graduates are working in video for the National Theatre and sound for Warner Bros. Entertainment, while our actors are devising with Punchdrunk, singing opera, creating companies, as well as leading casts at Shakespeares Globe and the Royal Court. Wherever their talent takes them, our graduates carry the RADA values of rigor combined with openness, technical skill with the capacity to generate innovation, a sense of inquiry with the ability to be part of a team. We want them both to serve the professions they enter and to challenge and refresh them. We also want them to pass their expertise on to future generations. And they do. RADA was founded over a hundred years ago by actors keen to share what they had learnt and the tradition remains strong. Our links to industry are almost unparalleled and our alumni are a vital resource, participating in the life of RADA as teachers, visiting artists and advisors. You may not know whether you have the talent to join them, the capacity to create a life-changing drama, a ground breaking movie, an award winning company, but the only way youll find out is to try.

ACTING AND PERFORMANCE


At the core of our actor training is the three year BA in Acting, designed for those students with the talent and dedication to pursue a career as a professional actor. The two term Foundation Course in Acting offers a preliminary insight into life at drama school and may be suitable for students considering a gap year before either an academic or vocational training.
04

The MA in Theatre Directing is designed for students with the experience and vision to pursue a career as a director in the theatre. The MA in Text and Performance, run in collaboration with Birkbeck, University of London, may be particularly suited to those wishing to study dramaturgical or textual aspects of the theatre-making process. Graduates from this course have gone on to work as playwrights, dramaturgs, directors and teachers. In addition RADA has a long association of supporting and developing new writing work. We are unique amongst UK drama schools in employing a full-time Dramaturg. All our acting and performance courses draw on the same pool of richly experienced and expert RADA teachers and directors.

BA (HONS) IN ACTING
COURSE DETAILS The three year BA in Acting (validated by Kings College London) is a vocational training designed to provide a thorough preparation for a career in a wide variety of media, including theatre, television, film and radio. THE PROGRAMME The programme includes the development of individual skills in the areas of voice, movement and acting, and their application in a variety of projects and productions across the three years. Work is continuously assessed and students have regular feedback sessions with teachers. The aim is to train actors with a high degree of technical facility and flexibility but also individuality and imagination. The course includes work on contemporary plays and styles and classes in camera and microphone technique, however the training is classically based because we believe this provides the best possible foundation for acting in any form or media.
06

PUBLIC PRODUCTIONS The first opportunity to perform in front of the public comes at the end of the summer term of the second year, when students rehearse a production which tours to schools as well as playing at RADA. The third year is spent mainly in rehearsal and performance of productions for one of RADAs three theatres. These productions draw on the diversity of world repertoire and are directed by industry professionals, often of national or international standing. Recent directors at RADA include Jonathan Miller, Lindsay Posner, Jonathan Moore and Mike Bradwell. In 2010 productions have included works by Stephen Sondheim, Sarah Kane, Sam Shephard, Marivaux and Shakespeare. MENTORING Final year students benefit from the RADA Buddy mentoring scheme. This programme supports the transition from student to professional actor. Graduate Buddies provide professional advice, feedback and networking opportunities throughout the final year and beyond. INDUSTRY SHOWCASE The Tree performance by final year students takes place in April each year and is named after the Academys founder, Herbert Beerbohm Tree. Students present scenes or speeches to an invited audience of agents, casting directors and industry professionals. ADMISSION PROCEDURE FOR BA IN ACTING Late applications will not be considered under any circumstances There is an intake of up to 28 students in September each year Auditions run from late October until June, with an option of auditioning in London, Manchester, Leicester, Dublin and New York It is RADAs policy to audition all eligible applicants who apply before the deadline HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR APPLICATION FORM Hard copies of the application form are available by emailing reception@rada.ac.uk All applications must be submitted with the registration fee (50 for applications received before 16 December 2010, 55 for applications received after this date) The registration fee is non-refundable THE AUDITION PROCESS Candidates auditioning in New York, Manchester, Leicester and Dublin should be prepared to attend subsequent recalls and workshops in London if required A list of audition guidance notes will be sent to all applicants It is a lengthy and rigorous audition process and may span several months

ACTING WORK Acting work in the first year moves from Stanislavsky-based exercises to scene and project work around realist material; these run in parallel with classes on classical text and improvisation. In the second year the project material is chosen in order to stretch students both imaginatively and technically: this includes Shakespeare and Jacobean plays, Greek Tragedy, Contemporary Writing and Restoration/Eighteenth century comedy. Acting for camera and microphone technique are primarily taught in the second year. VOICE TRAINING Voice training develops the range, clarity, strength and flexibility of the actors voice and speech. Speaking and singing are closely connected, focusing on breath, rhythm, tune, and phrasing, and releasing the authentic truthful voice in heightened forms. The study of dialects helps in the mastery of unfamiliar speech patterns, sight reading in spontaneous interpretation of text. MOVEMENT TRAINING Movement is an integral part of the training and runs throughout the course. Teaching draws on a variety of sources, including Laban, Pisk and Lecoq, with an emphasis on the ensemble and play. The students also study period dance (Medieval to 20th Century), animal, mask (neutral and character), stage fighting (armed and unarmed combat) tumbling, acrobatics and Alexander Technique. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Throughout the course professional development sessions introduce guest speakers from across the industry to stimulate, provoke and broaden the students appreciation of the career on which they have embarked.

RADA OUT AND ABOUT


RADAS EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAMMES support the Academys ethos of social inclusion and participation, providing activities for people aged from 16 to over 60. The Academy actively seeks to develop partnerships with like-minded arts organisations both in London and the regions and we introduce new activities to our portfolio each year. The post of Education and Outreach Manager is currently supported by Warner Bros. Entertainment. THE YOUTH COMPANY (formerly known as the Youth Group) is a year long drama project for young people aged between 16 and 20 who live in and around London.

REGIONAL ACCESS WORKSHOPS are run in partnership with regional arts organisations. These workshops are targeted at young people who have limited access to drama and can provide a taster for those young people who do not recognise the dramatic arts as a viable career choice. THE PRINCES TRUST PARTNERSHIP RADA has been working with the Princes Trust for the past five years supporting their XL programme in schools. This year the RADA student training for this programme was supported by Land Securities plc. CAMDEN SUMMER UNIVERSITY Thanks to the support of the Richard Reeves Foundation RADA will host the second CSU programme this year. This project is in partnership with Camden Council and gives young people living within the borough the opportunity to experience an intensive week of training similar to that undertaken by the core course students at RADA. FUTURE EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROJECTS (subject to funding): RADA Elders Company will be a theatre company and a series of one off community based workshops for people over 60. Empowering Volunteers Training Project enhances volunteers reading and storytelling skills. NHS Programmes are bespoke programmes created for hospitals/ hospices to complement the palliative care of people recovering from illness.

SATURDAY YOUTH WORKSHOPS are designed for young people aged between 16 and 24. RADA tutors, graduates and guest directors lead these popular full day acting workshops, which help participants acquire a diverse range of acting skills. THE SCHOOL TOURS have been funded for the last three years by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation. The tours provide the opportunity for central London schools to host a production performed by RADAs second year acting students and/or to bring a group of pupils to the Academy to see a production performed in the Jerwood Vanbrugh Theatre. GRADUATES IN SCHOOLS provide the opportunity for pupils to participate in acting or technical workshops run by RADA graduates. They also provide first hand information about vocational training and career opportunities in the theatre and related industries.
