Our Alumni in Action
Over 200 of our graduates are currently working in professional theatre, from West End stages to international touring productions. Here are some of their stories:
Currently in The Lion King
"The training I received here was absolutely transformative. The integration of singing, acting, and dancing in every class prepared me for the demanding audition process. Within six months of completing the professional development program, I landed my first West End role. The ongoing support from the faculty and alumni network has been invaluable throughout my career."— Sarah Mitchell, Ensemble & Nala Cover
Hamilton UK Tour
"I came to West End Theatre Courses as a complete beginner with just a love for musical theatre. The foundation course gave me the confidence and skills I needed to pursue this professionally. Three years later, I'm touring the UK in Hamilton. The instructors here don't just teach technique—they nurture your artistry and help you find your unique voice."— Marcus Thompson, Hamilton Ensemble
Mamma Mia! London
"The masterclass series was a game-changer for me. Getting to work with current West End performers and directors gave me insights I couldn't get anywhere else. The audition bootcamp specifically helped me develop the confidence and technique that led to booking Mamma Mia! The small class sizes mean you get so much individual attention."— Emily Rodriguez, Sophie Sheridan
Phantom of the Opera
"As someone who trained elsewhere before coming here, I can honestly say the difference is night and day. The instructors here are all working professionals who understand what it really takes to succeed in this industry. The performance opportunities and industry connections opened doors I never thought possible."— James Parker, Raoul & Phantom Cover
Chicago West End
"The summer intensive program completely changed my approach to musical theatre. In just four weeks, I learned more about character development and song interpretation than I had in years of previous training. The final showcase was attended by the casting director who later called me in for Chicago."— Rachel Chen, Velma Kelly
Broadway - Six the Musical
"Starting here in London gave me the foundation I needed to eventually make it to Broadway. The international perspective and high standards prepared me for auditions anywhere in the world. The alumni network stretches globally, and I still keep in touch with classmates who are now working in theatre around the world."— Amelia Foster, Catherine of Aragon
