Selection for Drama and Acting courses

Select your course above to find out everything you need to know to prepare for your interview, watch a short video about what we’re looking for and view the facilities section to immerse yourself in our creative spaces. 

You will be invited to a morning or afternoon in-person session at Bower Ashton, part of UWE Bristol’s City Campus. Please watch the below video about the course in advance of your arrival.

On the day you will:

• have an individual, in-person interview of approximately 20 minutes
• take part in a 40-minute group performance workshop in our theatre.

Applicants are advised to wear loose, comfortable clothing (such as a t-shirt and jogging bottoms) to enable full participation in the workshop.

The interview and workshop should take approximately one hour but we ask that you allow two hours on campus to complete all activities.

Typical interview questions will be:

• How have your past experiences shaped your interests and ambitions in Drama?
• Tell us about a play you have been involved in, watched, written, or read. What did the experience mean for your understanding and appreciation of Drama?
• What are your career ambitions after graduation?

Please note: If you are unable to attend an interview in-person, an alternative online session may be arranged.
