The MA Theatre Directing program at UEA ranks among the UK's most established. We admit only a select few directing students annually, fostering an intimate, team-oriented learning atmosphere.
This rigorous year-long course combines deepening your theoretical understanding of contemporary theater with ongoing practical application. Working closely with peers is essential - you'll collaborate extensively with undergraduate actors across all terms.
The curriculum explores postwar British theater's evolution while providing technical certifications like tallescope operation. You'll examine modern theatrical approaches while refining your directing techniques through workshops, scene studies, and full productions with acting students.
Elective offerings include premier courses in playwriting, experimental dramaturgy, television studies, and creative adaptation.
