MA
Summary
*RADA’s MA Theatre Lab extends an actor’s training and creative development, re-addressing acting as an embodied and exploratory art form at the heart of the theatre-making process.
*
Exploring techniques applicable to both interpretative and original work, the MA Theatre Lab expands your ability to work collaboratively and independently in various contexts. Working rigorously with expert practitioners, you will experiment with a range of practices empowering you to play a revitalising role in today’s theatre-making landscape.
The MA Theatre Lab is a four-term course, running from September to September each year. The course is ideally for applicants who already have strong experience in performance, extending existing training with rigorous experimentation. Instead of replicating RADA's three-year training in one year, it aims to build on applicants’ experience, giving them the tools to further both their independence and their ability to collaborate in the creative process.
Each term, your learning and assessment will be focused around practical exploration, followed by written assignments reflecting on your experience.
In your final fourth term, over the summer, you will work as an ensemble (in one group or more where appropriate) alongside a professional director to create a piece of work for public performance. The rehearsal process, performance and accompanying reflective document will together constitute your MA dissertation project.
Throughout the year there will be further opportunities to share your work and receive extensive feedback from staff and visiting professionals.

Entry requirements | An undergraduate honours degree or equivalent (Level 6 in the Framework for Higher Education Qualifications) and a minimum of three years’ significant experience as a practising actor or performer. In exceptional circumstances, RADA will also consider candidates for the MA with sufficient professional experience who do not hold a undergraduate degree or qualifications equivalent to Level 6. If English is not your first language, you will need an IELTS score of 8.0 or above for spoken English and 7.5 or above for written English. Please submit your certificates with you programme application. Please note that this is a physically demanding practical programme. |

Summary
The aim of the course is to enable students with a strong background in performance to develop and explore their skills in an experimental framework. There is a strong emphasis on devised and group work, and students are taught to approach the process of developing performance from a post-Stanislavskian framework. As well as equipping the student with the skills necessary to contribute to the widest range of theatre and performance practice, it provides the framework within which the student can explore, experiment and reflect critically upon the practice of acting and performance. The course is built around 3 primary strands: acting and performance; practice and methodology; skills development and scene study.
