Please read this document to find out more about the experience we are committed to offering you, so that you can make informed choices about your studies. You can find an indicative breakdown of modules for this course below. By accepting and enrolling on to a course in 2020/21 – 2021/22 you agree to these changes.

This will be assessed via telephone interview by the Admissions team.

All about the course
Industry professionals, who regularly teach or direct at LAMDA, will guide you through techniques of approaching your chosen speeches to present them with authenticity, clarity and vibrancy.
Alongside individual coaching sessions, the course will also consist of masterclasses to equip or reacquaint participants with the necessary skills to auditioning for drama schools as well as professional roles. The course will culminate with mock auditions in front of professional directors.
This course is not validated by a higher education institution (HEI). It is one of LAMDA’s own range of non-accredited courses. Once you've completed the course, you will receive a LAMDA short course certificate.

Over the two weeks you will cover a range of audition techniques. The content includes
- One to one sessions with an acting coach
- Tips and techniques to bring your speeches to life
- Masterclasses on the industry, Shakespeare and performance
- How to successfully self-tape an audition
