Join our BA (Hons) Drama with Foundation programme and benefit from a foundation year specially designed to support you in developing all the essential skills for success in higher education. Take centre stage with a degree in Drama at Plymouth, where you’ll work with experts from the University, the renowned Theatre Royal Plymouth and with wider industry. Perform in the University’s award-winning theatre, also a regular venue of international touring companies. Plymouth itself will become your stage as you put together your own productions across the city. Immerse yourself in how things work both on and off stage. Learn by doing, taking on the challenge of staging a full-length play – from bidding for funding to the final performance. See the impact performance can have on changing perceptions and addressing pressing social issues. At Plymouth, your degree really is what you make it. From your second year, you can choose to add in modules from across any of the School of Society & Culture’s 17 disciplines. This means you can add anything from Creative Writing to History to better inspire your own productions and increase your understanding of the contexts that influence performance. Develop your acting, writing and directing skills with trained performers, with a focus on physical performance, confident use of your voice, collaboration and critical awareness. Benefit from our dedicated placements officer, who will help you gain critical work experience through well-established local links.

In Foundation Year explore a wide range of performance practices which will offer you a solid base for your BA degree in Drama. You’ll acquire a toolkit of skills in a supportive and professional environment, and the confidence to know how to use it. In your First Year, learn foundational skills and concepts about theatre and performance, and apply these in studio spaces and practical tasks. Learn how to examine and evaluate performance, and how to raise the standard of your own performance work. In Year 2, work intensively with theatre companies in residence and experiment with your chosen styles and genres of performance-making. Make and perform work in theatre spaces and in alternative performance sites. In Final Year, cultivate your specialist skills and get ready to enter the industry. Make work for festivals, learn applied performance-making techniques and develop research skills by exploring your chosen areas of interest and practice.
