Your course
Master of Arts (Performance)
The Master of Arts in Performance is for students who want to focus on performance and build on their professional skills.
The MA is designed to allow maximum flexibility for you to concentrate upon the range of activities offered, to develop your own performance initiatives and to form a bridge to a performance career. This two year programme is the usual length for the MA though some candidates may be allowed to take the MA in one year; the length of programme can be discussed at your audition and adjusted later, you are not tied to the programme length you select in your application.
