Level 2 Drama

Course Description

Teacher in Charge:

Level 2 Drama focuses on formalising students’ knowledge of the theatre, as well as on new theatre forms. The course is themed and looks at how theatre and performance are influenced by and can help to shape social and political change. Students will watch and write about live performances for their external examinations and will complete 18 credits.

Drama demands a considerable time commitment and therefore an attendance rate of 85% is required for discussion with HoD.  All students are required to see two performances of live professional theatre.
