Drama
Studying drama develops creative-thinking artists and teaches essential skills, including teamwork, coping under pressure and communication.
We offer diverse approaches to drama, covering performance and production skills, such as stage management, set design, technical theatre and entrepreneurship. This enables our students to develop an understanding of performance in the context of production, giving them the best chance of developing career pathways.
Drama brings people together and has the power to influence and change our way of thinking. It also has the ability to connect and to communicate complex messages in an accessible way. Drama is an amazing, holistic discipline which combines critical thinking skills with creativity.
As well as developing the skills to become creative thinking artists, drama teaches essential skills including working as a team, coping under pressure and communication. It also helps you to develop emotional intelligence.
