Student destinations
Here at MGA we are consistently successful in preparing our students for progression onto further study or successful, sustainable careers in the performing arts.
Our suite of courses culminate with a professional showcase where our final year students are presented to the professional industry either through live performance or recorded media.
Some of our graduates choose to continue studying upon completion of their course with others moving into teaching. However most have made the successful transition from student to working professional.
These positive destinations have allowed our alumni to find employment in not just the UK performing arts sector but on stages and in theatres all over the world with many going on to work in West End productions, international tours, TV and film, world-renowned cruise companies and entertainment agencies!
This year’s graduating class can be found here.
