Drama and English BA(Hons) single honours

This drama course was rated top three in London for teaching in NSS 2017.
Drama at Kingston is a dynamic, challenging and supportive community, located in its own designated building, the Reg Bailey, which contains one large, fully-equipped, flexible black box studio, one smaller studio and a number of rehearsal rooms.
We offer a vibrant and diverse curriculum covering traditional subjects like Shakespeare and Victorian fiction, with contemporary topics like gender and sexuality, multiculturalism, avant-garde and popular performance,and a range of practical skills in contemporary theatre-making.
Students regularly take work to both the Edinburgh and Camden Fringe Festivals where we traditionally focus on the production of new undergraduate plays. You'll develop confidence to perform publicly through our close relationship with Kingston's Rose Theatre, where modules are taught.
You'll develop a range of transferable skills to equip you for the demands of a competitive world: the ability to formulate and articulate ideas; the ability to communicate effectively in written English; the ability to evaluate and revise your own work; the ability to solve problems in collaborative and creative ways and the capacity to negotiate outcomes informed by a breadth and depth of thinking.
The course allows you to combine practical work with intellectual study through a wide number of practical workshops throughout your three years on the degree.

This course provides the opportunity to combine two subjects which have historically been popular both at Kingston University and across the sector. Do you want to gain knowledge and understanding of drama and English and to explore the synergies between them? Are you interested in the theatre but keen to study other literary forms? Then this is the course for you.

It'll provide you with the knowledge, understanding and experience of the theatre as a cultural institution, through the study of drama, literature, dramatic theory and performance practice. The course is delivered in a dynamic, challenging and supportive environment and students benefit from their own dedicated studio and rehearsal facilities as well as from Kingston's proximity to some of the world's great theatres.
