The AS Level / A Level Drama & Theatre Studies is a Full-time Further Education course designed for students who are interested in the performing arts and entertainment industry. This is located in the Sixth Form Academy (SFA).
It is a highly practical course that provides learners with the opportunity to work as either performers or set designers, combining the activities of exploring plays, creating theatre, performing of plays, the analysis of theatre and the critical evaluation of all these elements.
The course allows you to study a minimum of two complete performance texts plus three key extracts covering a range of periods and contexts. You will also participate in a minimum of two performances and consider the working methods of a theatre practitioner. Live theatre reviews form part of the non-examined assessment and will be used to assess practical work.
