Course summary
Join an exciting and challenging Drama degree that will support you to become a future industry leader. Study Drama at Greenwich and develop the skills for success in the Creative and Performing Arts.
Drama at Greenwich is an innovative and practice-led course where you learn and work out of the Bathway Theatre in Woolwich - a specialist facility with six studios and a flexible auditorium. You'll be taught by world-leading academics and theatre practitioners with exceptional partnerships with industry.
Take part in a range of modules from devising to technical theatre, directing and writing. Hone your performance skills through large-scale public productions and create your own Theatre Company in the final year to kick-start your professional future.
If you're interested in a Drama course with a year studying abroad, have a look at our 4-year BA (Hons) Drama with International Study degree. You can apply to join the BA (Hons) Drama with International Study degree as a new student in year 1 and students studying our BA (Hons) Drama degree may be able - subject to meeting certain conditions - to transfer to the BA (Hons) Drama with International Study degree.
Our 4-year 'sandwich' mode includes a professional practice year where you work with one of our industry partners.
