Course summary


Overview

Drama and Creative Writing work together to craft powerful stories, invent new forms of expression, and engage audiences and readers in rethinking the world around them. Whether on page, stage or screen, we learn about ourselves and others, discover new ways of living, and we have the chance to change lives and impact the world. The Drama and Creative Writing degree at UEA offers you the opportunity to study in two brilliant departments, including the longest-established and most prestigious Creative Writing department in the UK. Youll be taught by artists, writers, and researchers. Youll learn how to write, how to bring your writing to life, and how to think about the arts and the world. Youll take modules in both disciplines, studying innovative playwrights, writing, and theatre practices from around the world. Youll learn the art of writing, including for stage and screen, the craft of theatre-making, and how critical thinking leads to rigorous and powerful work. Youll have the opportunity to study all kinds of creative writing, with a particular focus on writing for theatre, cinema, television, and radio. Alongside this, you'll be exploring the contemporary practice, criticism, and history of dramatic writing and performance. Your writing will be enriched by an awareness of theatrical and literary traditions from around the globe.  Youll work in our professional Drama Studio, benefiting from our highly regarded student-run Minotaur Theatre Company and gaining even more performance, technical, and scriptwriting experience. Studying in Norwich means youll have access to a rich arts scene, including Norwich Theatre, Norwich Arts Centre, UEA Live, and the National Centre for Writing. Your degree could take you into a career in the creative industries, as a writer or working in theatre, film, and radio. Or you might choose to take your collaborative, creative and critical skills into a host of other professions or into business. On our BA Drama and Creative Writing with a Placement Year, youll normally spend 9-12 months of your third year in a placement, gaining invaluable working experience and employability skills in a relevant area of your choice.
