Course Description
London is a hub of artistic and cultural practice, and has a long history as a site of theatre and performance. With the city as its base and point of departure, MA Theatre Studies (Performance and the City) is a broad master’s programme, offering opportunities for specialisation in a range of areas.
The programme provides an opportunity to explore the city’s theatres, to understand the pressures and practices that shape the theatre scene, and to consider the performances that haunt the city. MA Theatre Studies (Performance and the City) takes the urban context as a starting point for exploring key questions; as researcher, reviewer, dramaturg, and critic, the student will engage with the city and its performances, acquiring knowledge, skills, and competences along the way.
