FULL TIME TRAINING
PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES
Our students attend college from 9.00am-3.00pm every day; twice the normal BTEC hours. At Bodens we really are full time and all that extra training ensures further development.
Throughout our courses, students perform in more than ten full productions, covering contemporary and classical plays, theatre in education, devising, physical theatre and musical theatre.
DRAMA SCHOOL EXPERIENCE
