Key module for

BA W412 Acting and Stage Combat

Module description

This final compulsory module for the BA Hons Specialist Performance Skills: Stage Combat is a devised project that will call upon on the skills and learning accumulated during the previous three years of study. Students will be divided into two groups based on general interests, and will work with a Graduation Project Supervisor (GPS) in order to create a performance of approximately one and a half hours. The final production will not simply be a display of "learned skills", but will be an engaging piece of drama with a story, structure, and point of view. Much of the work for this project will be carried out independent of supervision - but the GPS will remain in constant contact with each group to ensure the creation of high-quality showing. The detailed work of the module is dictated by the requirements of the specific project. It will include research, devising, rehearsals and performance.
