Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Drama and Creative Writing

Program Overview

The core philosophy of the BA Drama degree is to facilitate exploration of practical, academic and technical skills through applying learning in the context of creative practice. The diversity of the UK drama sector and its working practices informs our approach. The course is aimed as aspiring drama practitioners from actors, directors, devisors, playwrights, to technical theatre managers, educators, researchers, facilitators, workshop leaders, and producers. Working within the Kingston School of Art, the drama degree's core philosophy is to demonstrate thinking through making.

If you have a passion for the craft of theatre, this practical course could be for you. It covers skills and methods in theatre making and performance, key approaches to interpreting performance and theatre design. You'll be taught through inspirational workshops, public performances and theatre-based lectures.

On this course, you'll explore important phases in theatre history as well as contemporary plays, devising companies, directors and other practitioners. The course culminates in a major Production Project module.

This degree can be tailored to your own interests. You'll be able to choose your modules from a wide selection, including cabaret, stand-up comedy, directing, Shakespeare, scriptwriting and theatre in the digital age.
