The Professional Performance Programme at Runshaw College

The Professional Performance Programme at Runshaw College Premier training course in the UK for FE students intending to follow careers in the Performing Arts.

The Professional Performance Programme (PPP) is an intensive, high-quality training course that is only available at Runshaw College. We take the best young performers in the North West and help them to improve and develop their skills before they progress to the next level of trainingy. This is a highly challenging course for the most motivated and committed students who are certain that they wan

t to pursue a career in the performing arts. Whereas A-levels focus as much on the theoretical side as the practical work, the PPP teaches hands-on performance skills and therefore gives students a much better chance of passing the auditions for prestigious dance or drama schools. The PPP has three pathways: Acting, Dance and Musical Theatre, each of which is specifically-tailored towards the appropriate career route. One graduate from the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts commented that the PPP course at Runshaw was the best preparation for drama school that she had encountered.

One of our favourite weeks of the year is currently in full swing as we take not 1 but 2 shows around local primary schools bringing a live theatre experience to hundreds of children from 3-11 years old. It’s great to see them interact with the performances and it’s valuable experience for our students.
