Saskatchewan Drama Acting letter of intent

Saskatchewan's current direct-entry Drama Acting packet asks for a letter of intent with three short responses: why the applicant wants to study acting, a theatre work that influenced them, and an interest outside acting. The separate résumé records acting experience, while the audition includes a prepared monologue and interview. The detailed packet is labeled 2026, so its prompts need confirmation for the next intake.

Writing format

Three short written responses within two pages, plus an acting résumé and audition

What to prepare

  1. 1Explain why university-level acting study fits what you have already explored, using a particular performance, class, or rehearsal experience.
  2. 2Choose one theatre work you actually saw and explain how a performance or production choice affected your thinking.
  3. 3Use the interest outside acting to show a different part of your life; keep the acting credits and dates in the separate résumé.

How to approach the writing

Before you submit

The department's direct-entry PDF is labeled 2026, while the current 2026–27 catalogue confirms the letter, résumé, and audition. Ask the School for the Arts for the Fall 2027 packet, current delivery instructions, and audition date before finalizing the three responses.
