The Randolph Academy College-level Program transforms aspiring performers into multi-talented professionals through a unique Triple Threat™ training program. Triple Threat training integrates and puts equal emphasis on the study of dance, vocal, and acting. A conservatory approach immerses students in the pursuit of artistic excellence, with over 2,140 hours of practical, hands-on coursework ("contact hours"). The comprehensive curriculum includes on-camera training for film and television, audition techniques, developing stage and screen presence, vocal techniques for various styles of singing, and various dance forms.

About the program

Randolph College for the Performing Arts, established during Canada’s mega-musical revolution in the 1990s, was the country’s first post-secondary educational institution to offer “Triple Threat” training. RCPA transforms performers into multi-talented professional artists through a rigorous industry-driven conservatory program that integrates acting for the stage and screen, vocal, and dance (jazz, ballet, tap), as well as theory and history. The ensemble spirit of the program allows students to explore and enjoy positive working relationships while discovering their own uniqueness of character.
