Our unique Theatre Practice postgraduate programmes cover practice-based work in theatre and can be taken either as an MA, full-time over 1 year or part-time over 2 years.
The MA Theatre Practice is divided into a number of flexible pathways. You can specialise in an area of your choice by following a specific pathway, select modules from different pathways to tailor an individual programme, or even take a module from outside Drama to complement the range of enquiry. All pathways are taught by leading academics in one of the largest and best equipped Drama departments in the country.
The programmes appeal to a range of prospective students: practitioners who want to develop their practice; graduates who are planning a career in arts education (schools, colleges, universities); and those who want to look more in depth into aspects of drama they have enjoyed and benefitted from through undergraduate studies.
As a student enrolled on one of these programmes, you will develop skills and techniques to further your vocational career, theoretical knowledge which will enrich and enhance your creative work, as well as the ability to critically interrogate your performance practice.
The Physical Performance and Actor Training pathway
The MA pathway in Physical Performance and Actor Training offers the opportunity for engagement with the practices and methods of a range of approaches to training and performance.
Through collaborative and individual practice, you will explore intercultural perspectives on the body and forms of performance, physical training for performers, documentation of performance, and in-depth independent research of your choosing. You will also be able to participate in workshops and master classes run by respected international practitioners.
