Postgraduate Diploma in Dance Performance
Full-time: 11 months
Validated by City University London
The ultimate aim of the
MA Dance Performance is to develop performers who will contribute effectively and creatively to the profession, not only as practitioners, but also as articulate advocates for performance and performance practice. Together with the advancement of your skills as a performer, you will have the opportunity to formulate a deeper understanding of the technical and artistic complexities inherent in performance. You will be encouraged to critically reflect on your development as a performer, in both the studio and the wider theoretical contexts.
The taught element of both programmes consists of the following modules:
Practice as Research
Advanced Technical Practice
The Performer in the Creative Process
Dance Performance
Project
To complete the MA programme, you will undertake an in-depth independent research project after your time with Transitions Dance Company. This may take the form of a lecture-demonstration, a written dissertation, or a practice-based project with supporting documentation. The project is not required for the Postgraduate Diploma in Dance Performance.
Assessment is through a variety of modes including the assessment of performance practice (e.g. technical skills, dance performance), a journal/portfolio, lecture-demonstrations, and the independent research project.
In addition to acceptance into Transitions Dance Company (through audition), you will normally have successfully completed a UK undergraduate degree in an appropriate or related subject; or hold an overseas award of equivalent standard (e.g. USA degree – GPA 3.00 or above). English Language competency requirements also apply.
