Birkbeck's BA in Theatre and English immerses you in London's dynamic cultural landscape. This program examines theatre as performance, script, and historical phenomenon while offering rigorous engagement with literature.
Your study of theatrical traditions and critical approaches will enhance your understanding of English literature. You'll examine narrative techniques across both disciplines, gaining expertise in dramatic and literary works spanning from medieval times to contemporary creations. Elective modules let you specialize in specific writers, styles, or eras - from Shakespearean drama to speculative fiction - with opportunities for practical theatre-making if desired.
