**Overview**<br/><br/>Offering an exhilarating immersion in all aspects of theatre, this drama course combines a comprehensive grounding in acting, directing, theatre-making, and practical stagecraft with the thoughtful and inventive study of plays and performances. You’ll explore a range of theatre and performance practices from around the world, combining theoretical and historical knowledge with practical exploration and skills in all elements of theatre-making.<br/><br/>Throughout your drama degree, you will learn from practising directors, scriptwriters, and theatre-makers alongside academic experts in theatre and performance. Once you graduate, your BA Drama degree will open the doors of the theatre world to you – or you might choose to take all the skills youve learnt to any number of careers across the creative industries and beyond. <br/><br/>**About This Course**<br/><br/>Our professionally equipped 200-seat Drama Studio will be at the centre of your Drama degree at UEA. Youll have the keys to this amazing space, giving you the chance to control everything in your own productions, from performance and staging to costume, lighting, and sound-design. Youll have similar opportunities to immerse yourself in practical stagecraft to those on offer in a Drama School.<br/><br/>But your Drama degree doesnt only offer a practical training ground.<br/><br/>At UEA, you’ll encounter an astonishing array of drama, theatre and performance. You’ll engage with major theoretical approaches, actor- and director-training, and techniques for creating and writing your own work. You’ll examine the politics of theatre and performance – and its use by the State, by political activists and by theatre and performance practitioners – to solidify or challenge structures of power. You’ll also discover the cutting-edge theatre companies that are shaping the contemporary performance landscape.<br/><br/>Everything youre learning will deepen your practical work in the theatre. Our drama seminars offer you unrivalled opportunities to master theoretical approaches to dramatic writing and performance analysis. As you get inside the words of plays in the seminar room, youll become better able to release their energies in your own performance. Each year, you will bring everything that you’ve learnt together in practical projects, and will undertake a wide variety of applied drama work.<br/><br/>Youll also benefit from our highly regarded student-run Minotaur Theatre Company, which gives you the chance to gain even more performance, technical, and scriptwriting experience. Find out more about life in the School of Literature, Drama and Creative Writing on our Instagram @uealdc. <br/><br/>On Drama with a Placement Year, you’ll normally spend 9-12 months of your third year in a placement, gaining invaluable working experience and employability skills in a relevant area of your choice. <br/><br/>**Disclaimer**<br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
