What Our Students Say About BADA

Training at BADA has been some of the best years of my life. I graduated from the 2-year drama course and picked up so many skills along the way. The experience there has been nothing short of life-changing for me! Fay & Martina were brilliant in their delivery of the course and really pushed us to our limits. The course was very demanding and challenging but, as a result I was able to make so many breakthroughs e.g. crying on cue, staying present in a scene, ownership... I met some great friends along the way and am grateful to have shared this experience with my fellow graduates! If you are looking for somewhere that will be honest and genuine with you about your acting ability and will really help you target your weak areas. This is the place! I highly highly recommend!...not for the faint of heart. This place will push you!

I graduated from the 2-Year Drama Course and the experience changed my life. I learnt how to perfect my craft and was provided with all the tools to excel. The skills I have learnt have been vital as an actor new to the industry. Though not an easy journey, Fay and Martina's critiques and support enabled me to get the most out of each performance on screen and stage. Fay's industry knowledge is also extremely helpful in guiding you if you need to learn more about the industry. The course was such a positive experience and I look forward to working with Fay in the future. Highly recommend for those who are serious about their craft!

I have studied two courses at the Beck Academy, both have been better than I could have expected. In particular, the Meisner course was great. Fay is an amazing teacher and the overall experience is something that is hard to explain- you need to try it.

I took their earlier course in 2018, and the current one in 2024. Thank you beautiful teachers, and keep going.

I completed the 2 year drama course at BADA and the lessons I've learned are invaluable. Teachers Fay and Martina will push you to strive for excellence and teach the craft in powerful, engaging and challenging ways. Over the 2 years, I have not only transformed as a character actor but also as a person. With the tools I've been given, I feel ready to take on this tough industry! Highly recommend this place if you want to excel and have a passion for the art of acting and storytelling.
