Part-Time Performance Course

Monday and Wednesday Evenings | October 2025 to June 2026

This programme is the second level in the GSA Part-time Training Suite and has been designed for those with some prior experience. Applicants to the GSA Studio course must complete an audition and interview to assess both the applicant’s ability and commitment to learn. Once successful, incoming students will be expected to commit to all three terms of the course. 

Students who are accepted on GSA Studio will work with their fellow students and tutors to connect with their specific qualities and skills as a performer. Students will be given the opportunity to play and explore within the studio setting over the course of the three terms. The ability to explore, experiment and examine is crucial for a performer, giving them the chance to learn what works for them. 

This course is the ideal opportunity for an aspiring performer to try out a myriad of styles. In GSA Studio you will find what suits you as a unique and individual performer. 

The course takes place over three terms from October to June, with classes taking place two evenings a week on Mondays and Wednesdays. Each term culminates with a work-in-progress showing or performance.
