Building on Principal Performance Studios 3, you will extend your learning through relevant activities in the Music Theatre, Drama and Technical Theatre specialisations. You will develop concurrent concepts of 'freedom' working organically through personal connection, impulse and imagination with analytic skills to shape your theatre craft across material from a range of styles and demands. If you are in the Music Theatre specialisation, you will concentrate on the creative study of prescribed composers and specific styles of song, pursuing greater skills as an actor, as well as developing more complex skills in dance routines building on increasing security in technique. If you are in the Drama specialisation, you will concentrate on style in vocal delivery and physical expression associated with the performance of a variety of texts. If you are in Technical Theatre specialisation, you will explore the aesthetics and functions of sound design, creation, playback and reinforcement as applied to various specialised production projects.
