Professional Practice: Theatre and Drama Facilitation at Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts - UCAS

Course options

Course summary

Now in its third year, this innovative MA enables you to maintain your professional practice while reflecting upon and refining the skills and techniques to elevate your career to a more specialised or strategic level. This programme runs January to January, so the next intake is January 2023. The blended learning format includes work-based and distance learning with intensive teaching blocks, so you get the benefit of arranging your study schedule and face to face peer engagement. Our course empowers you to:

  • Rejuvenate and advance your drama facilitation practice
  • Cultivate critical reflection to improve professional decision-making and contribute to your field by finding new solutions to common challenges
  • Exploit appropriate analytical and project management tools to enable high-level reporting in a professional context.

Assessment method

Modules follow a similar pattern, each beginning with intense taught delivery followed by a period of work-based learning in which the new skills/techniques/knowledge are explored in practice. This learning is then reflected upon during weekend seminar workshops leading to the development of an action plan to deliver assessed work over a final period of work-based study. Several modules will require journaling for reflective practice, and this will take the form of online blogs, augmented with the digital capture of practical work for further reflection and feedback from supervisors.


Entry requirements
