    Applicants will normally be invited to attend an interview day of moving, thinking, making and playing in our exciting theatre facilities on our Hendon campus. You'll get to work with our staff and current students, meet other applicants, and together we'll create a piece of theatre and showcase it at the end of the day. If you cannot attend an interview day, please submit a self-tape (video). This will either be a recording of you performing an extract from a theatre text of your choice (approx. 2-3 mins) that should demonstrate your ability to perform a memorised script and make clear performance choices, or be a recording of you telling us about a production you’ve worked on or seen and what role you took (or would love to take one day) and why (max. 5-mins).
