Course summary

Applied Theatre: Community, Education, Wellbeing (MA) offers a postgraduate qualification in theatre, drama and performance practices that are inclusive and take place outside of traditional theatre settings with, by and for a range of participants and communities.

This unique postgraduate programme will challenge you to develop and extend your practice. By locating your discoveries and learning within the wider field of applied theatre you will be able to see your role within participatory drama practice and focus on your emerging questions of practice.

What you will learn

Applied Theatre: Community, Education, Wellbeing (MA) provides a suite of modules that look to deepen and widen your skills base in applied theatre practices and facilitation skills whilst encouraging depth and rigour in reflective practice in order to develop efficacious applied theatre praxis; it offers the opportunity to interrogate current critical discourse in the field and respond to the more problematic areas of socially-engaged practice with originality and insight.

The programme encourages autonomy and independence throughout, whilst holding space for your individual specialisms or interests, and the development of work within a more unfamiliar area. The MA culminates with the Major Applied Theatre Project where you will work autonomously to develop a substantial project within your area of interest.

Applied Theatre: Community, Education, Wellbeing (MA) has strong links with local and national organisations and companies including People Speak Up, Hijinx Theatre, Torch Theatre, Small World Theatre, Wales Arts Health and Wellbeing Network and National Theatre Wales, alongside local schools and education facilities and local health boards.
