Course Overview

There is a range of career opportunities available to Drama and Theatre graduates. For many of our students, their degree will lead to a PGCE and a rewarding career in teaching. Other graduates choose to work with young people or communities across various settings as applied drama practitioners in youth work, addiction and recovery, and theatre-in-education. For some, professional training in aromatherapy will offer a pathway to using healing aspects of drama as part of the therapeutic process. Many of our graduates take up front-line roles across the creative industries; as actors, performance-makers, stage managers, writers, and directors. Some choose to form their own theatre companies, creating touring or site-specific performances across the UK. Jobs in creative development, audience engagement, and arts management are also exciting destinations for graduates. Or, if you wish, a Drama degree equips you to take up the challenge of postgraduate study.
