What you studyDramaFine ArtDramaMedia and Communication StudiesDesignDramaMedia and Communication Studies
What it isThis program teaches you acting and performance through hands-on training in theatre. You'll spend three years developing skills in character work, movement, voice, and stagecraft through workshops, rehearsals, and productions. It suits people who want to pursue theatre professionally or seriously as performers, rather than studying drama primarily as theory or history.Dramatic Art is the study of theatre, performance, and how drama communicates meaning to audiences. You'll learn acting, directing, script analysis, and how media shapes storytelling across different platforms. The program includes a work-integrated co-op component, so you'll spend terms working in theatres, film, or media companies alongside your coursework, giving you real production experience before you graduate.This program combines theatre design and production with media communication studies. You learn how to create and build sets, lighting, and sound for stage and film productions, and study how to communicate visually and through performance. It suits people who want to work in theatre, film, television, or live events rather than just perform or study drama theory alone.
