Over the course of their three year training, final year students on our BA (Hons) Video Design for Live Performance and BA (Hons) Technical Theatre Arts programme (now BA (Hons) Production Arts) have worked with professional directors, designers, conductors and choreographers – and of course all the talented actors and musicians at the School – to realise plays, operas, musicals and major external events with fully professional production values. In their final term they worked on virtual productions, introducing them to new skills which will no doubt be vital as the industry emerges from the current challenges.

The one-year MA Collaborative Theatre Production & Design brings together early-career theatre practitioners, including Designers, Sound Designers, Lighting Designers, Production Managers, Stage Managers and Video Designers. These practitioners work together in creative teams on an exciting and varied array of theatre projects to develop ‘theatre making’ abilities, allowing students to explore their potential as creative artists and enabling them to work with other students on a series of collaborative projects.

If you would like to discuss a professional opportunity with any of the students please contact the Production Arts & Drama Administration Office on ProductionArts@gsmd.ac.uk.
