Course Information

If you're considering a career in the performing arts, this combination of dance and drama is both artistic and practical.

You'll be encouraged to develop your own identity in dance and as a theatre-maker, reflecting your own interests and career pathway. To prepare you for working in the performance industry, you'll develop analytical, choreographic, directorial, ensemble and performance skills.
