This practice-based MA is divided into a number of pre-professional pathways, mainly Applied Performance, Contemporary Performance Practice, Design for Performance, Physical Actor Training and Performance, Production Dramaturgy, Standup Comedy, and Theatre Directing. If you do not have a particular interest in any of our named pathways, you can study the General Programme which will enable you to select modules from across the other available pathways.

Teaching is based on workshops, residencies, placements and guest lectures from practitioners, as well as on creative work both individually and in teams and groups (often across pathways), and culminates in an individual MA dissertation or an extended practical project.
