Unit Description

This unit is the third phase of a project designed to research, create and reflect upon an original piece of theatre. In this unit students will apply their research and preparation from THEA501 and THEA502 in the rehearsal and presentation of a piece of theatre. Students may take part in the production as actor, director, designer or playwright. The rehearsal process will be recorded in the form of a journal or blog, and at the end of the production a performance record will be submitted in an appropriate form. This should be accompanied by an analysis reflecting on the process and the final product.
