Staff

Manchester School of Theatre teaching and visiting staff maintain active profiles as professional actors, directors and movement and voice consultants.

The BBC, Almedia Theatre, Cambridge Shakespeare Festival, Lion and Unicorn Theatre and the National Theatre, are just a few of the organisations our staff have worked with. In addition, our staff regularly undertake research and publish academic articles, chapters and books. They also attend and contribute to conference events related to actor/performer training and visiting staff are chosen from the profession to support the full-time team to ensure the course benefits from regular industry input.
