Where can Drama and Theatre Studies take you?

Drama and Theatre Studies is a highly teamwork based A Level and encourages you to be creative and imaginative. These features are highly sought after when applying to university or going down the career route. You will be expected to take risks during practical explorations and rehearsals.  Regular theatre visits are offered throughout the course and by analysing and evaluating what you have seen, you will get inspiration for your self-devised and set text performances as well as evaluating a performance for examination purposes. The course is structured to balance written work and practical work to help support you to succeed in both the written and practical exams.
