MA Theatre and Performance supports postgraduate research and practice in experimental theatre, socially engaged performance, live art, relational and participatory arts, and activism. Students will be enabled to understand, challenge and make theatre and performance as technologies for intervening in the most pressing issues of our time: of gender, sexual, racial or class identity; protest, activism and direct action; and change towards climate and social justice.
Our Theatre and Performance MA programme encourages you to explore your own ideas in depth and build a body of original, thought-provoking work. A key benefit of the programme is its flexibility: across compulsory and optional modules, you can develop your interests in both theoretical and practical projects to advance your career.
We balance rigorous theoretical and historical exploration with experimental performance practice. You will work with our internationally respected academic staff and attend lectures, workshops, and mentoring sessions with visiting artists throughout your studies, building your professional network in the process. In recent years our MA has hosted a wide range of high-profile artists, including Stacy Makishi, Peggy Shaw and Manuel Vason among others.
