Drama and Theatre Studies
Campus availability: Clayton
Students who wish to make a specialist study of drama and theatre studies may do so within the Centre for Drama and Theatre Studies. The units available represent a wide range of approaches to studies in the field but most place a strong emphasis on performance. While the major in Drama and Theatre Studies is not designed specifically as a course in systematic skills training, the element of performance in our program (whether in public production or through 'in-house' experimental work) is regarded as fundamental to the analysis of theatre texts and processes.
For further information students should contact the School of English, Communications and Performance Studies.
