Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Drama, Theatre and Acting

Program Overview

BA (Hons) Drama, Theatre and Acting is an exciting hybrid course that combines the conservatoire-style study of acting and performance with the academic study of post-Renaissance drama as text.

You'll learn through an exciting and eclectic mix of theoretical and practical modules, and examine contemporary pieces that deal with political and social issues like:

  • LGBT rights 
  • race 
  • mental health
  • social unrest and more. 

With its strong employability focus, the course prepares you for many careers in theatre and the arts. You will be partly taught at the Old Fire Station, a professional theatre in the centre of Oxford. This enables you to develop hands-on, practice-based skills in all aspects of theatre production both on and off the stage. You'll also take a compulsory work placement module and gain employment skills, including:

  • Communication
  • Self-presentation
  • Interpersonal skills.

You'll emerge with valuable insight into the theatre arts industry, along with the practical skills and confidence to start your career.
