Are you a disabled person between 18 and 24 years of age? Have you ever dreamt of training at one of the world’s leading acting schools?
The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA), located in an accessible building in Central London is offering free inclusive summer workshops which will give young disabled people and their peers the opportunity to enhance their skills and gain confidence through performance. Through the generosity of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation, RADA is able to offer full support and facilitation for disabled participants. Your teachers will be senior staff from the Academy and professional directors.
The course is aimed at anyone between the ages of 18 to 26 who is either thinking of applying to drama school or has an interest in theatre and would like to explore the craft further.
Applicants are not asked to audition, but you will need to complete a questionnaire so that RADA can plan the support you will need. The course takes place from the 03 to the 08 September 2012 between 10:00am and 6:00pm. You will need to be energetic and committed to the course - full attendance is essential and you will receive a RADA certificate.
