Production Arts and Design (BA)

Production consists of both the BA Production Arts and Design and the BA Production Technology and Management programmes. Production students work closely with each other both in the classroom and on RCS productions.

The Production Arts and Design programme creates a high-level learning environment for aspiring scenic artists, prop makers, stage carpenters, costume makers, and set and costume designers. You will be learning in an environment where your creativity and individuality is as important as your technical skill.

You will be accepted based on your profile in one particular area, taken from the five subjects on offer. You will follow an individual pathway based on a major and minor study to ensure a quality learning experience and will have the unique opportunity to engage with the diverse range of performance programmes.

The facilities available to our Production students are second to none. The Wallace Studios at Speirs Locks has purpose-built production workshops and design studios. The Renfrew Street building has five public performance spaces including a fully-equipped proscenium arch theatre and a black box studio theatre. The combination of professional venues, extensive workshops, construction spaces, design studios and the latest stage and workshop technologies provides a fantastic learning environment.

Our standards are based on professional practice and we have strong links with industry partners from across the UK and beyond. We have close relationships with the national performing arts organisations in Scotland as well as many of the regional theatres. We work closely with these partners to ensure the education you receive is current, competitive and of the highest professional standard. tandard.
