This programme has a flexible and supportive approach which makes it possible for you to strengthen your professional practices while working towards a higher degree.
‘Practice as research’ is a growing area for experienced dance artists, choreographers, and performers who want to deepen their practice and strengthen their profile. Run by leading artist-scholars, the course supports inquiry through studio practice and research informed by contemporary theoretical concerns.
You will be supported in the development and presentation of a comprehensive choreographic and/or performance portfolio, which allows you to practice, think, reflect, articulate, and present your ideas and independent research.
You will also gain a range of reflective and critical skills including writing and documentation strategies, advanced dramaturgy, and the capacity to understand your work and interests in broader political, cultural, and artistic frameworks.
The School is home to the internationally-recognized Centre for Dance Research, which foregrounds the research of dance as cultural and artistic expression as a theatre performance and beyond. Through seminars, forums, and conferences involving staff and international guests, the Centre supports a compelling research culture.
We also have excellent links with dance companies and creative organizations. In easy reach of London’s vibrant dance scene, the campus has superb studios and a state-of-the-art theatre for dance students.
You should usually hold a second-class honors degree (certain programs may require a 2:1) from a recognized British or overseas university.
20 hours of work permit weekly for international students.
