Study Details:
This programme focuses on creating an ensemble, performer training, theatre making and performative writing.
Informed by critical reflection and practice research, the uniqueness of this programme lies in the opportunity to develop and present original work.
In a collaborative context, students move creatively between different roles to develop skills in performance and independent making practice.
We welcome students with a background in performance as well as theatre making, dance, writing, music, film and live art with an interest in developing their practice as collaborative and independent theatre artists.
Please note: Course content is regularly reviewed to make it relevant and current. Course modules are, therefore, subject to change
Applicants for Masters programmes will be expected to have a good undergraduate degree in a related subject area. The College also encourages applications from those without formal qualifications who may be accepted based on professional experience.
Applications remain open until the course is full. However, we understand the unique circumstances of international applicants and accept their late applications to our postgraduate programmes until 31 July.
Please get in touch with us at international@bruford.ac.uk for information on entry criteria if you are applying from outside the UK. You can also visit our international students page.
Application and self-tape
When you submit your online application you will be asked to submit an application form with digital self-tapes, no more than two minutes each, performed in English:
If you consider yourself primarily a performer: a reel, or a video excerpt of a recording from a fully staged production in which you are prominently featured – no readings or home tapes please (no more than 3 minutes).
If you consider yourself primarily a director: video excerpt of a recording from a fully staged production you have directed (no more than 3 minutes), directing portfolio or website.
If you consider yourself primarily a writer: an excerpt from a script you wrote (10-15 pages).
If you consider yourself to be a multidisciplinary practitioner: it is best to submit material you consider most accurately representative of your current artistic practice.
Workshop and interview
If successful, you will be invited to the second round which will be an in-person workshop based on our Sidcup campus.
Workshops and Interviews, the process has two stages:
Stage 1: Workshop
A three-hour workshop consisting of practical work and discussion that takes place at Rose Bruford College’s Sidcup campus. No preliminary preparation is required; information on what to expect will be sent to you with the invitation to participate.
Stage 2: Interview
The interview is an opportunity for you to meet the Programme Director and outline your motivation to participate in the course specifically and how you envision it will inform your personal and professional development. It is also an opportunity for you to ask us questions about the course student life at Rose Bruford.
