Drama and Theatre Studies

Course summary

The course focuses on developing your range of theatrical skills and knowledge of plays and practitioners. It demands a high level of skill in both practical performance and academic work. Students will extend their ability to create theatre, developing their understanding of all technical and design aspects, as well as their performing skills. They will be expected to analyse and evaluate live theatre performances, create original work, study two set plays, and perform extracts from another. Students will take part in theatre trips and workshops, experience working in professional spaces, both at our own Theatre and other venues, which will prepare them with the basic skills necessary for careers in the industry.
