Quotes from LAMDA Students

"Sincerely, I have learnt so much this year that I can only say that I will recommend the Foundation course to every aspiring actor I meet. My skills have flourished and my friends in acting have noticed a huge, huge change. One of the major things I have learnt is that you cannot Act if you cannot Listen. I can only say positive things about this year, it was GREAT GREAT GREAT!"

Morgane Pisoni

"I had a lovely experience. The teachers were very straightforward and willing to help me to better myself as an actor. I hope to perhaps return one day on a longer course."

Nathan Wiley

"Even though I was only studying at LAMDA for a semester, I learnt so much and had an amazing time doing so. The classes and workshops were challenging and extremely valuable for my acting. It was great to learn so much from different styles of teaching and techniques."

"My experience of training at LAMDA has been some of the most challenging and important times for me. It has been a whirlwind of change, leaving me with an unparalleled sense of anticipation and excitement to apply all I have learned. LAMDA has made me an actor."

Ragini Bhaumik

"Besides a network of highly accomplished actors I trained with and can call upon at the drop of a hat to develop and devise a piece of theatre; besides the blessing of much-needed temp work in between auditions; besides the priceless exposure to agents & casting directors; besides all these things and more that going to an elite drama school can give you, the most vital is KNOWING that I can crack any part that comes my way. Some parts will take longer than others and doubt will always be prevalent in varying degrees but it's something actors yearn for: to be competent. And I am, because of LAMDA."

"I had the best year on the Foundation course. I learnt so much. And it was the difference between me not getting into the LAMDA 3 year and getting in the next year. I gained so much experience in actually doing rather than studying, experience which I could have got nowhere else. I would recommend everyone to do it!"

"The best year of my life. Amazing people, great teachers and a really friendly atmosphere. It prepared me for the three year course at LAMDA even more than I though it would. Do it! You will learn so much!"
