THE PROGRAM:
MUSICAL THEATRE
Our program of excellence boasts a high number of contact hours per week, taught solely by industry performers from West End, Theatre, TV, Film and Cabaret, with credits including Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, Heathers, Wicked, Legally Blonde, Jersey Boys, Shrek, Matilda, The Bodyguard, Mamma Mia, Grease, We Will Rock You and Thriller, to name but a few.
Classes are individually tailored to the strengths of each student, giving a personalised training program of modules. Due to the nature of smaller year groups, every student is nurtured, supported, challenged and important.
​
Students perform extensively over the two years, working in a professional rehearsal environment, with a wide variety of directors and choreographers. Performances may include a play, musical revue concert, community theatre project, monologue, or solo song and dance, with each year culminating in a public, theatrical production. A standard of excellence, positive working environment and supportive peer group is promoted both in the classroom and performance setting.

COURSE CONTENT
MUSICAL THEATRE
ASA Theatre Arts provides industry-driven training, whilst streamlining VLUK's BTEC qualification cleverly through the two year course. The new BTEC Nationals promote a practically based learning environment over 13 units, whilst ensuring theoretical excellence, relevant to the Performing Arts sector. The mandatory and optional content provides a balance of breadth and depth, while retaining a degree of choice for individual learners to study content relevant to their own interests and progression choices. The proportion of mandatory content ensures that all learners are following a coherent programme of study and acquiring the knowledge, understanding and skills that will be recognised and valued within the industry today.
Through learners performing vocational tasks, the development of appropriate vocational behaviours and transferable skills are encouraged. Transferable skills are those such as communication, teamwork, research and analysis, which are valued in both higher education and the workplace. Our approach provides rigour and balance, and promotes the ability to apply learning immediately over a wide range of contexts.

This is a brilliant academy with extremely professional and qualified teaching staff, who are also truly lovely people. I have learnt so much in my 2 years here and I couldn’t have progressed as much as I have without this school
You won’t find a better theatre school in the area. Absolutely fantastic!
ASA was most definitely the best choice of College for my Daughter, she has grown as a performer so much. Alana has so much experience to offer and my daughter regularly attends practice auditions for the West End with many different professionals -a great way to prepare her for Uni. Highly recommend!
