The Undergraduate Certificate in Acting introduces students to foundational principles and practices in live performance. The practical skills and theoretical knowledge you'll acquire benefit anyone interested in gaining a more refined understanding of live performance.
It's also excellent preparation for those considering application to the Bachelor of Performance (Acting) or (Directing), both of which require auditions. Some topics successfully completed in the Undergraduate Certificate can be credited toward the first year of the Bachelor of Performance (Acting) or (Directing). For the Bachelor in Performance (Theatre Making) all topics of the Undergraduate Certificate can be credited.
This makes it a great pathway for those curious about university-level learning before committing full-time to an intensive undergraduate degree.
