Course overview

The two-subject moderatorship course explores theatre and drama mainly from a theoretical and historical perspective. It combines library-based courses with training in critical and analytical skills. While it follows a similar format to its single honor equivalent - drama and theatre studies (TR025) - the amount of practical content is more limited. TSM students will have approximately 7 hours per week of classes plus rehearsals.

Is this the right course for me?

The strong developmental nature of drama and theatre studies means that, in addition to a high level of analytical ability, you will need to possess resourcefulness, self-motivation and good time-management skills. By its nature, practical theatre work calls for full-time commitment to rehearsal and production at certain times of the year. As this happens in tandem with regular scheduled classes, you can assume that a relatively high number of contact hours result. You will also need to have the ability to work as a member of a team to succeed on this course.
