About this course
We normally require a minimum of three subjects at A level or equivalent. One of these A levels should be in Drama, Dance, Theatre, Performance or a related area of the arts. Typical offers for particular courses are listed in the table.
We do consider extracurricular practical experience, and we consider applications from candidates who have not studied the subject before.

Course programme
BA (Hons) Theatre and Performance
Mode: full-time
Focus on modern and contemporary performance. Through study and practical projects, we investigate the traditions and innovations of 20th and 21st century performance practice. You will be taught by staff who make or research performance, or both, as well as by visiting professional artists.
Since 1990, Scarborough has been home to the National Student Drama Festival, and our students are actively involved in its organisation. We also have a close relationship with the Stephen Joseph Theatre, and the internationally acclaimed playwright and director Sir Alan Ayckbourn is an Honorary Professor here.
