What is THTR1002 about?

This unit introduces both practical and theoretical approaches to understanding and creating contemporary theatre specifically focussing on devising. Students will incorporate practical processes and theoretical material to gain a critical understanding of devising techniques and processes and will apply them to the rehearsal and presentation of an original devised work. Attending performances at the Hayman Theatre will be central to the experience of this unit. Students will apply the processes and skills of contemporary theatre practitioners to the rehearsal and presentation of an original devised work. They will extend their performance practice through active participation in the Hayman Theatre Company performance season and will attend a variety of performance pieces. They will develop a critical mind enabling them to offer sophisticated critique and analysis of their own and a range of different theatre-making processes.
