Mountview’s Foundation training in musical theatre finely balances core technique training across acting, singing and dance while developing creativity and artistic identity.

Led by the same training team as our BA (Hons) course, the full-time Foundation is focused equally across the triple-threat disciplines.

The course is all about helping you find your creative voice and developing the technique needed to progress onto further vocational training.

There are 32 places available each year. You will receive 30 to 36 hours of contact teaching each week over two terms.

The training includes a focused audition preparation module allowing students to develop technique and repertoire for future drama school auditions. This ensures the course delivers a balance between audition preparation and preparing for a life-long career. It is not just about a single discipline, it is laying the rigorous foundations of the triple-threat performer.

Admission onto the course is by audition.

Applicants must be aged 18 years or over at the start of the course.

If an applicant’s first language is not English, and they have not been taught in English or studied to A Level standard in the UK, they will need to demonstrate an acceptable minimum level of competence through the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) (Band 6.5).

Mountview welcomes applications from people with disabilities and is keen to support all applicants to achieve their best. If applicants have any special requirements or access needs, these should be discussed with the course leader/administrator.

Mountview is committed to a comprehensive policy of equal opportunities for students in which individuals are selected and treated on the basis of their relevant merits and abilities. No applicant will receive less or more favourable treatment on grounds of sex, age, ethnic origin, disability, religion and marital/parental status or any comparable grounds.
