Our well-known Foundation Course is an intensive introduction to the discipline of acting – and applications are now open!
Choosing where to train is the first major decision in an actor’s career. At The Questors Theatre, we offer more than just classes; we provide a theatrical home. We are the only part-time programme in the UK completely integrated into a working theatre, ensuring that every minute of your training is rooted in the reality of the stage.
Whether you’re an aspiring professional looking for an intro before applying for drama school, looking to change careers, or a performer looking to re-ground yourself, this could be the course for you.
After completing our year-long Foundation Course, most of our students go on to complete our Advanced Performance Course, allowing them to further develop their skills and, upon graduation, gain automatic acting membership to Questors.
Here’s what some of our previous students have to say:
Questors has been a life changing course for me both in terms of acting, and friendship. Within two years, I have made friends who share my passion for performance, been inspired to throw myself into opportunities within Questors and outside of Questors, discovered and developed my individual craft, and been accepted onto the NYT Epic Stages course – all of this thanks to the confidence and skill honed during the Questors Foundation and Advanced Performance course. I cannot recommend it enough. (PLUS, the bar has the cheapest drinks in all of London…) [Jenny Gardiner, Group 78]
I could not recommend the course at Questors enough. I nearly cancelled the audition because I had had very little experience acting and was incredibly shy and insecure. But the warmth, professionalism and camaraderie of Questors worked its magic. The care and skill of the teachers nurtures even the most doubting soul and the trust and connection between the students is magic. You pick up skills for life in this haven, so do apply – it will be the making of you. [Ruth Comerford, Group 72]
The Questors Student Group is probably the best thing that could have happened to me as someone always wanted to be an actor but didn’t know where to start. Since I graduated, I’ve been on TV, appeared in movies and co-wrote my own play which was performed at the Questors. All that would never have happened without the Student Group. I owe it everything. [Wesley Lloyd, Group 62]
