Stream Outline

THIS STREAM IS FOR STUDENTS COMMENCING FROM 2016.

The Theatre and Performance Studies minor stream will enable you to engage with a range of performance modes and to experience a combination of both practice-based and concept-driven learning. As a Theatre and Performance Studies student you will be introduced to the skills required to analyse, interpret or work with a variety of performance forms. The stream’s contemporary focus explores experimental live arts, multimedia and dance practices. Its historical orientation focuses on essential skills in playtext and genre analysis as well as on national theatre traditions and canon formation. Offerings in creative practice focus on skills development and include opportunities to study interdisciplinary collaboration, professional production, script-writing and solo performance. The stream also offers internships and arts reviewing courses which emphasise links to Sydney-based production companies, venues and publishing networks.
