Wednesday, 29 May, 2pm - 5pm MA Theatre and Performance.
MA Theatre and Performance students present an afternoon research symposium in which each student will give a short presentation about a research project.
The postgraduate programme offers theatre makers a bridge between undergraduate study and the professional world and involves an opportunity to identify and explore in depth an area of particular interest. Students are supported to develop their own voice as a research practitioner, discussing developing projects with contemporary debates and exploring a wide range of research questions.
Thursday, 30 May, 2pm - 5pm. BA (Hons) Drama and Applied Theatre
Join BA (Hons) Drama and Applied Theatre students as they explore the role of the socially engaged artist in society. Graduating students will reflect and deliver short presentations on their projects, including Equal Arts Creative Friends group, Seven Stories Centre for the Children’s Book and intergenerational projects based in Care Homes in Gateshead.
We are proud of the contribution that our graduates make to the cultural offer of the North East and by using drama and theatre, they can benefit many who may not have the opportunity to participate in the arts.
