Lamda acting & musical theatre At NLPAC we offer LAMDA Classes, preparing students to take graded exams in Acting and Musical Theatre. Students can work towards graded exams from Entry level up to grade 8 (Gold), leading to prestigious, nationally recognised qualifications from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art – with the higher grades earning the learner UCAS points. LAMDA Exams are held at our centre at the end of every term. LAMDA Acting LAMDA Acting LAMDA examinations in Acting use the preparation and performance of dramatic scenes to support the development of self-confidence and communication skills. By portraying other characters, learners can explore a range of different personalities and emotions, which in turn makes them more emotionally aware and empathetic.
