THIS STREAM IS FOR STUDENTS COMMENCING FROM 2016.

The Theatre and Performance Studies extended minor stream will enable you to engage with a range of performance modes - theatrical and cultural, European and Australasian, contemporary and historical, text and non-text based, low and high culture - and to experience a combination of both practice-based and concept-driven learning. As a Theatre and Performance Studies student you will be equipped with the skills to analyse, interpret or work with a variety of performance forms. The extended minor stream's contemporary focus explores experimental arts practices. Its historical orientation focuses on 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.
