Studying Drama and Theatre at A level enables you to develop your knowledge of plays in performance. It offers plenty of opportunities for performance but this is balanced by opportunities to direct and analyse as well. Throughout the course your knowledge of performance styles, practitioners and working theatre companies will improve as well as your knowledge of a range of periods in theatre history.
You will require a Grade 5 or higher in GCSE Drama if studied, as well a Grade 5 or higher in English Language and Literature. If you have not studied GCSE Drama, experience of the subject is essential.
There will be a combination of internal and externally marked practical pieces and performances, coursework and a written examination at the end of the two years.
