School of Acting - Bachelor - Arnhem

Programme per year

Year 1 & 2: researching acting 

In the first year, you will get to know yourself better through playing. You will explore different role-playing techniques and skills and discover your capacities and pitfalls. How do you go from initial idea to scene? Which way works best for you? How do you work with others? All of this takes place in classes, training modules and seminars.

In the second year, you will still follow your regular training modules and classes, as well as deepen your research. In projects, you will be challenged to apply what you have learned in classes to performances and presentations.

Year 3: the main phase - working independently  

In the third year of the course, you will work more independently. You will question and investigate your own artistry and put together your own curriculum with your mentor. Your studies in year 3 will also prepare you for work in the professional field. You will write a graduation plan, in which you will explain how you want to design your graduation programme. In the final year of the acting programme, we expect you to present yourself as an independent, enterprising actor.

Year four: projects

During the programme, there is room to create your own performances. In the fourth year, you will create a graduation performance which you will present your work in a professional theatre.
