Theatre and Performance Practices

-The programme provides multiple opportunities for students to develop, present and receive feedback on their own theatre and performance practice. This involves leading professional practitioners acting as mentors for individual students when creating their final practice as research projects. Our facilities include a large flexible-seat theatre seating over 200 spectators as well as smaller studio spaces Glasgow is home to a huge variety of theatres that produce and show a range from the experimental and risky, to the traditional and repertory, from canonical and new writing, to devised and physical performance. World-leading venues include the Citizens’ Theatre, Tramway, Centre for Contemporary Art (CCA) and the Glue Factory.

PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

The programme is designed to give you a practical and critical engagement with many forms of theatre and performance practice through a variety of core and optional courses. You can take either an optional course or a work placement (agreed and negotiated with your tutor) according to your personal interests and perceived needs. Your optional course can be selected from across the College of Arts, enabling an interdisciplinary approach.

The programme concludes with a Practice as Research Project. This provides you with a degree of flexibility in relation to the focus of your advanced study. It permits further applied practice or the opportunity to undertake an in-depth written study on an area of your choice.
