Although talent is useful, attitude is far more important. Theatre Studies students need to be hard working, motivated, committed and, above all, prepared to work as part of a team. Much of your time will be spent in preparing for productions, learning new techniques, conducting research and writing essays. You will be exploring play texts of different periods and genres, as well as devising your own drama and critiquing the work of theatre professionals. While everyone is involved in all aspects of productions, some students specialise in a technical skill such as costume, set, directing, sound or masks rather than acting.
- 6 in English Literature or English Language GCSE. 6 in Drama GCSE if studied but Drama GCSE not required; however you need to show evidence of an interest in the theatre. - For students who achieve a minimum of 8 full course GCSEs to include at least 4 at grade 8 and 4 at grade 7, with a minimum grade 5 in English language and mathematics, it is possible to opt for a fourth A-level subject or to complete the EPQ.
