Drama and Theatre Studies

Course summary

Drama provides the opportunity for an in-depth study of the theatre in all its aspects. This involves a wide range of approaches, both theoretical and practical. Students study set plays from a performance and production perspective, perform devised and scripted pieces, learn about the ideas of key theatre practitioners and see at least four live productions each year. Although most students tend to opt for acting as their practical assessment, they can choose a design/technical option instead, such as set design or lighting.
