Course programme

Modular structure At stage one, you'll develop a common vocabulary for your studies across dance and theatre, culminating in an end-of-year performance. At stage two, you'll apply this knowledge to the development of choreographic practice, production of a musical drama and options in a range of performance practices. At stage three, you'll undertake an independent research project, alongside advanced study of performance and creative practices. How to work as a professional in the performing arts industry underpins practical elements of the course across all three stages culminating in the development of a portfolio that draws together documentation of your skills and abilities.
