Went to see the cabaret performance on Thursday and what a stunning performance by the cast. The band was on point and a fantastic venue. HARD to beat.

'Christmas on Broadway' - Masters Students in Musical Theatre Studies.Such a talented bunch of performers, the orchestra were superb too. We enjoyed every minute of this musical extravaganza, and it was such a treat to kick-start Christmas.I wouldn't be surprised if I saw any of these young in people again in West End productions. I wish them all well for the future and really look forward to seeing where they go next. Highly recommend you also look out for Cabaret shows regularly staged in the foyer of the college (they are free too, shhhhh).Very well done. More...

Good space for appreciation new compositions from a range of tallented musical artists. The space is defined into a wooden panel auditorium and more studio like performance rooms. Outside architecture adds to the contemporary look of modern Cardiff. More...

My son went there and I am very proud to have been it's first Writer in Residence. It's a wonderful acting course, down to earth and intimate whilst challenging.
Improvisation and 'being in the moment' are core and rightly so.
The design and stage management courses are world class.
It's productions combine all three to be of a standard very few colleges, if any in the U.K., can rival.
Cardiff isn't London, but at WCMD a student gets unparalleled individual attention and that makes it worth the effort to catch a bus to see the latest West End show.

My time at RWCMD will always be cherished. It enabled me to focus and develop as a musician. The style of tutoring approached by lecturers blew my mind and helped me think outside of the box and push myself to the max in order to create my own musical identity. I gained huge confidence which led to great achievements resulting in record deals, UK, European & USA tours and festivals etc. An incredibly inspirational environment. I'd do it all over again tomorrow. And it was lots of fun! More...

We did our first wedding at this lovely venue today and cannot praise the staff enough for their welcome and assistance.
Naomi was a delight to meet and we were made to feel cared for - a great indicator of general customer service standards.
The waiting staff made sure I had water on this uncomfortably hot day, and Naomi ensured our doves flew off on time.
We hope to be back soon!
No hesitation in recommending.

To fill the creative banks after an intensive year of developing the Arts in the Middle East, I attended your 'Acting For Camera' intensive week of workshops by actor Richard Mylan. So impressed was I by RWCMD, the sessions, Richard and your staff that I am delighted to become a supporting patron of RWCMD and look forward to the coming year. Good luck! More...

I have not enjoyed a Handel opera so much in YEARS. Wonderful collaboration between Mid Wales Opera and RWCMD. So much exuberance carefully balanced by angst in this sparkling production. Go and see it on tour in Mid Wales if you miss it at RWCMD. Director Martin Constantine brought out the best in the student designers. Lovely light orchestral playing. More...

There is a lot of modern architecture that I dislike but this building is aesthetically pleasing. When you enter, the foyer feels welcoming. The Cafe was most welcome for us. The real joy was in the theatre. A stunning appearance with superb acoustics. Despite the horrific journey down the M4, this made it all worth while. More...

Just saw Cabaret at the college. What a wonderful production. Such a talented cast, with marvellous voices and very sophisticated, nuanced performances. A very enjoyable evening, in an intimate theatre space and the impressive building and setting added to our enjoyment. Thank you for entertaining us so well. More...

Saw the final year students in a production of Killer Joe. All the cast were great. Future stars in the making. Very powerful acting. That Charlie Cassen was excellent! The staging was fantastic and thoroughly worth the trip down from London to watch it. It seems like a lovely college with a great vibe about the place. A very warming experience. More...

First ever experience of a show at the Richard Burton Theatre. In truth I only went as my son was doing his first show as the tech crew but I must say it was a fantastic professionally produced show. First opera I've seen but hopefully not the last. More...

I had the pleasure of a tour of the college yesterday. The tour guides were my daughter and a fellow MA student.
The pride they displayed as they produced lecturers for greeting was inspiring.
The quality of their management skills was second to none as they directed me from theatre to threatre.
The promise of a good lunch at Student rates was topped by the smiles that met me over bowls of chips.

I had the privilege to study in the inaugural MA Musical Theatre course and it was the best year of my life. Brilliant staff, welcoming atmosphere and a stunning place to learn. Cannot speak highly enough and only wish I'd gone and studied a BA earlier at RWCMD to have spent more time there and learnt even more. More...

When Venue 13 is in Edinburgh it is the most fantastic experience. People look forward to it every year. Most entertaining with new shows each year and the staff are amazing. Sorry when it all comes to an end but now looking forward to 2018. My dog Sooty will be nonplussed when he ventures out and everyone has gone home to Wales. He so much likes being fussed over; a typical pomeranian. Until next year.... More...
