We want our world-leading training to be available to talented young people across the UK, especially those under-represented in the arts and higher education (HE). This includes people from BAME backgrounds, people with physical and sensory impairments and people living beyond South East England.

Situation
There is a perception, fuelled by stories in the press, that to become an actor, or to work in theatre, you need to be from a privileged background, even to pay the fees for training. For decades, RADA has trained people from diverse backgrounds and we want to continue this and improve on our record, especially for young people from disadvantaged and BAME backgrounds. This project supports our outreach work to create and sustain that talent pipeline.
Solution
Our solutions: -Create new pathways into technical theatre training, especially for young people from BAME backgrounds -Offer workshops in and beyond London to disadvantaged young people and encourage them to consider applying to RADA or other conservatoi
