Course summary

A Level Theatre Studies is for students who are interested in the practical study and exploration of plays and practitioners within a social, cultural and historic context. There are three key components to the course and all are taught practically. The course provides opportunities for devising, directing, performance and design across a range of genres and styles and students can select their own route through. Currently, students enjoy exploring two plays: ‘the first working class tragedy’ Woyzeck, a play which presents the protagonist’s struggles in a hostile environment and Accidental Death of An Anarchist, a fast paced and darkly comic political satire.
