The Brighton Academy (TBA), Hove Campus, Brighton | Fees, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

TBA offers world class training for prospective Actors and Musical Theatre Professionals. The quality of the training is brilliant, influenced by the fact that many of the teachers and principals are currently working in the industry as well as teaching. There is a wonderful community feel at the college, the smaller size of year groups allows each student more one-on-one attention and feedback from staff, a priceless advantage. From my own experience on the acting course there is a good balance of classes to touch base on all aspects of performance training and to ensure that no area is overlooked, a difficult balance to achieve and the course has it.

Brighton itself is a beautiful part of the country, typically south east with good connections to London. Employment wise Brighton and Hove has plenty of opportunities for work, and with the acting course allows students to fund themselves whilst training at TBA. The college has outstanding credentials, experience and a confidence-establishing success rate with graduates. I couldn’t recommend The Brighton Academy any more to prospective visitors. The courses demand hard work and dedication, and you will be pushed to your extremes, the rewards undoubtedly and thoroughly worth it.

I recently graduated from TBA, and I can happily say that attending this amazing college was the best decision I ever made. I have changed so much as a performer, and found confidence in myself that I didn’t even know I had. Before joining TBA, I classed myself as a non singer, and dreaded being asked to sing, but after three years under the guidance of incredible teachers, I sing confidently and happily. The opportunities presented to you at this college are one in a million, and I really felt like part of a family throughout the entirety of my training. I would absolutely recommend this incredible college to anyone.

The process of choosing a performing arts college to train at can be a difficult and hard decision for someone to make. When personally going through this process I could have easily chosen a college with a “well known name” or a larger reputation however I was easily persuaded and excited by what The Brighton Academy had to offer me. This included various renovated campuses, SMALL class sizes, 1-1 singing lessons (twice a week) Fees affordable for all, 2 physio sessions once a month inc in fees and not forgetting the 100% agent success rate with well known agents within the industry.
Deciding to train at TBA will be up there with one of the best decisions I have ever made. The college thrives on the fact we are a family and every single student is known on a first name basis and not by a number on their leotard (everyone matters).
Each student receives so much support and personal attention from the faculty as well as receiving the highest level of training as we are taught by teachers who have so much valuable and current knowledge of the industry and by four principles who pour nothing but love and passion into the college.
I’m only stating all of this because I was very close to not choosing TBA as my college of training and I believe that if I didn’t choose this college I wouldn’t have achieved anything near what I have today.
With 100% agent success rate I would recommend this college to anyone, it is also completely free to audition at the college.

Hand on my heart I have honestly loved and cherished my three years of training at The Brighton Academy, and feel completely honoured to have graduated from there, and I will be forever grateful for everything the college has given me.

This college is incredible! I’ve learnt so much in my training and would recommend it to anyone wanting to train in musical theatre. All the staff are amazing and are still working in the industry so they know what it take to make it. You get so much training for what money your paying. The Brighton academy has only been open for 7 years and has so much successful students already with 100% of them leaving with agents. I honestly can say that 5 stars is not enough.

I’ve only been studying at TBA for a term now but I absolutely adore this place! I have learnt so much in my short time here! The faculty are all long time professionals that provide the highest quality training, the contact hours are unlike any other drama school I’ve seen and the facilities are great, there are 3 campus’ that are only a short distance apart, each campus has several large studios, changing rooms and private singing rooms. At TBA you are taught by your own principals multiple times a week, you get 2 one to one singing lessons a week and amazing opportunities to take part in a multitude of shows. If you are thinking of auditioning for TBA I’d say go for it! You’ve got nothing to loose and everything to gain! (Besides, they provide you with a free audition!)
