BA CPP

At Level Four you have the opportunity to specialise in one of the following areas: directing, education or performance or solo performance or you can choose modules from each area and continue to develop as a multi-disciplinary artist. Much of the work produced in this final year is shown in some of the exciting industrial spaces at Tramway, which is one of Europe’s leading arts venues.

In Performance, Solo Performance and Directing you have the opportunity to undertake a professional secondment for 2 months and to develop new work with professional artists and your peers. Recent secondments have included Forced Entertainment (UK), The Builders Association (New York, USA), Station House Opera (UK), Bak Truppen (Norway), Goat Island Performance Group (Chicago, USA).

Specialising in Education involves secondment to a professional theatre company, working as an Education Officer working with your peers, and finally leading a Theatre in Prisons project in collaboration with the TIPP (Theatre in Prisons and Probation Service) Centre, Manchester.

Throughout this final year you are offered professional support and development to prepare you for your move into the professional field. You are encouraged and supported to devise appropriate strategies designed to help you into the world of work.

Technology and Documentation Practices at Level Four is focussed on the creation of your Professional Portfolio.  This is a negotiated project which would normally have at least three components which may include: a website, web-based performance documentation, a professional authored DVD, a paper-based portfolio, teaching materials, an interactive CD-ROM, personal manifestos.

At Level Four you are responsible for organising your own Daily Practice and calling upon RSAMD’s resident voice and movement specialists according to the needs of your projects.
