SUBJECT

Performing & Production Arts (Acting)

What are lessons like in this subject?

Lessons in UAL Performance and Production Arts are extremely practical and encourage collaborative work between students. Whether you are a keen performer or more interested in directing, backstage/technical support, there are numerous opportunities for you to develop your skillset. Students work together with each other to create live shows that are then performed to live audiences. Students also have the chance to learn outside of the classroom by going on trips to see live theatre at various venues around Yorkshire.

What will I study?

  • Units 1-4: An introduction to the skills necessary to explore their creative development.
  • Units 5-7: Requires the student to apply their skills, knowledge and understanding in a series of production and performance assessments.
  • Unit 8: Students will undertake a production and/or performance role in a performance. An examiner will watch the performance work.
  • Work experience in business.
