Course summary

TA keen and driving interest in theatre is the most important pre-requisite to study this subject at a higher level, and our aim is to explore the transformative power of theatre; to find out as Augusto Boal put it, “who we are and to discover who we could become” and, thereby, “help us build our future, rather than just waiting for it”. During the two years you will create pieces of theatre, see an eclectic range of live productions, re-interpret existing texts, plan your own productions, perform and/or design performances, and most importantly, find and develop your own ‘voice’. As you are educated so will you be moved, excited, and even infuriated by the things you learn and discover about yourself, your culture and about the sense of what it is to be a human being.

Entry requirements

GCSE grade 6 in Drama and a 6 in English Literature or a Humanities subject.

How you'll be assessed

There is no written exam just a range of coursework-style tasks.
