Thomas -Second year, Acting: “The first year was a great introduction to the basics of acting. We learnt about the origins of theatre, Shakespeare and storytelling. We also worked with other students to make short films so we could understand the difference between acting for camera and stage. In our second year we looked at more forms of theatre and went out into the community to do performances to make an impact in the local world. As well as a dissertation, third year is about building a portfolio and learning how to succeed in the industry after graduation.” 1st Year The complicit actor The roots of theatre Academic skills The Shakespearean actor 20th century text in performance Acting for camera 2nd Year Popular forms The community centred actor The creative actor The global actor Contemporary text in performance Actors specialism 3rd Year Professional profile New writing in performance Theatre production The working actor
