Our acting summer school is an unparalleled opportunity for aspiring actors to immerse themselves in a creatively challenging environment.

A Tradition of Excellence

At Italia Conti, we understand better than anyone that acting is more than a hobby or passion.

With each class underpinned by our ethos and prestigious standing in the industry, we guide each student towards realising their potential when it comes to professional acting.

Confident and Knowledgeable Instruction

Our instructors bring a wealth of experience and training in acting and the performing arts, and they’re dedicated to instilling confidence and expertise in all our students. With their diverse backgrounds in theatre, film, and television, our teachers provide insights and knowledge in a way that is both accessible and empowering. It’s through their mentorship that participants in our summer school learn the techniques whilst grasping the finer nuances of performance.

Inclusivity and Diversity at the Core

Italia Conti’s acting summer school and ongoing programmes are rooted in the spirit of community, with a steadfast focus on building an atmosphere of supportive creativity that is vital for inspiring individuals to push their own artistic boundaries. Since our establishment, we have opened our doors to students from all backgrounds. We are dedicated to nurturing a community where everyone’s unique perspective is valued and we’re here to help them to recognise their potential and room for technical improvement.

  • “I have just graduated from Liverpool Theatre School with a Level 6 Diploma in Professional Musical Theatre. I wanted to do the BA Hons (Top Up) in Professional Arts Practice course to further develop my skills for the industry. It is the perfect balance between academic writing and creativity. I already have seen improvements, both in my academic and performing work, and I now really value the ability to critically reflect on past experiences in order to improve my current skills.”

  • “I have found that my first term at Italia Conti has been better than I could’ve imagined. I am working with driven, passionate, likeminded people within all different realms of the performing arts industry. I find that the course is very tailored to each individual and the content is broad enough to apply to everyone but specific enough to challenge each person within their abilities. I find the course to be a place where I can collaborate and interact with people who I’d never had met otherwise. I only look forward to what the next few months of the course bring and feel more motivated than ever.”

  • I’m a dancer in LA and can’t keep up with my peers on how often they take dance classes. This channel has been so helpful for me to keep up my training. Thank you for sharing this with the world. I feel like we are all dancing together even though we are all doing this at different times and in different spaces. 🖤
