Overview

There are opportunities to engage with professional theatre-makers and our museum-accredited archive, the Theatre Collection, to develop your range of critical and practical skills while diversifying your awareness of potential future careers.

Key facts

In your first year, you will learn how to analyse performance while developing practical skills in a range of performance practices, including staging play texts, developing workshops, and engaging in production work for the theatre. In subsequent years, you will choose from a range of options that will deepen your analytical, critical, practical and historical expertise around your interests and aspirations. You will choose units concentrating on research, performance and practice-as-research.

The Theatre and Performance Studies programme from University of Bristol culminates in an independent study project. This could be a group or individual performance, or a dissertation. You will also have an opportunity to undertake professional development. We have strong links with the creative industries and partners with whom you might undertake professional development have included the Bristol Old Vic, MAYK, Traveling Light Theatre, ACTA and Brave Bold Drama.
