Overview
The programme aims to empower students to become enquiring, critical and articulate within and beyond choreographic practice. It equips students with strong choreographic and performance skills through a critically informed approach. Students are encouraged to integrate creative and physical skills to facilitate and produce dance with a clear artistic vision.
Programme structure
Year 1 introduces students to the practice of choreography and performance through the wider historical, cultural, social, theatrical and interdisciplinary contexts of dance.
In Year 2, students pursue areas of special interest and reflect creatively and critically on their work and their artistic position in the context of contemporary performance and practice.
In Year 3, students focus on their dissertation, which may be practical or written. This is supported by modules which prepare them for work within the field.
The programme has strong links with regional and national dance organisations such as The Point, Theatre Royal Winchester, Wessex Dance Academy, Yorke Dance Project, Dance Up and Zoielogic.
Students create and perform their own works on campus, in local theatres and at other venues. Students also have the opportunity to engage with professional dance practice and performance via visiting artist teachers.
