Описание: Time-lapse showing first-year students from BA (Hons) Theatre Practice re-create a scene from the film Pride and Prejudice in tableau.

BA (Hons) Theatre Practice is a programme of specialist degree courses in the creative and production practices of theatre and associated arts. Students receive a high-level specialist training, rooted in a thorough, practical understanding of how ideas become realised through collaboration, communication and effective planning and resource management.

Theatre Practice graduates are qualified to work professionally with the critically reflective skills and knowledge necessary to continually develop, innovate and, eventually, lead. They know the
importance of mutual respect for the processes of others, and, in turn, command the respect of their collaborators. Students will learn these core lessons through practical projects while undertaking specialist study in one of the following disciplines:
Costume Construction
Design for the Stage
Performance Arts
Production Lighting
Prop Making
Puppetry: Design and Performance
Scenic Art
Scenic Construction
Stage Management
Technical and Production Management
Theatre Lighting Design
Theatre Sound.

Distinctively, the courses admit students who already have a commitment to a specialist area of theatre practice on entry. They are, therefore, able to develop students to a higher level of specialist practice with advanced skills of interdisciplinary collaboration. Based on the processes of traditional theatre practice, the courses encourage students to apply depth and rigorous practice to a wider theatre context.

Whilst students specialise in one of these subjects, they will work in mixed teams with students of the other specialisms on practical projects and productions. There is also the opportunity to work with acting, applied theatre, movement, voice, dramaturgy and writing students, encountering many different models of theatre and performance practice.

Students will have the opportunity to collaborate with professional companies and individuals. Recent collaborators include Goat and Monkey, Parrot in the Tank, Blind Summit, English National Opera, Little Angel Theatre, National Theatre, the Roundhouse, Institute of Contemporary Arts, Robert Lepage, Border Crossings, Nutkhut, Shunt and Emergency Exit Arts.

As appropriate, students will have the opportunity to use technical facilities unrivalled in the sector. Alongside traditional techniques and methods, they will engage with the latest digital practices, including computer-aided drafting, rendering and modelling, image capture and manipulation, digital sound production and design and show control.

The courses have excellent industry links with the performance and entertainment industry. As well as undertaking projects with theatre institutions such as the National Theatre, Royal Shakespeare Company, the Royal Opera House and English National Opera, students may have opportunities to work with film and television companies, museums and galleries on immersive theatre and devised theatre, and also visual merchandising projects with Conran, Harvey Nichols and Liberty.
