Our practice-based BA Theatre Production course provides you with professional training in a wide range of production skills.

Guildford School of Acting (GSA) is one of the most highly regarded theatre schools in the UK. You will be joining a vibrant community of performers, performance makers, creative practitioners, and backstage technicians.

You’ll work in close collaboration with fellow students to deliver a variety of productions within our modern, large and well-equipped venues in GSA, the Ivy Arts Centre and Performing Arts Technology Studios (PATS) Theatre.

On our BA Theatre Production course, you‘ll work on a variety of productions including plays, musicals, devised projects and events.

The course begins with a comprehensive introduction to all core subjects relating to professional theatre production. You’ll go on to build experience in a range of skills including sound, lighting, video, stage management, and construction and scenic arts.

As you progress through the course, you’ll be able to select one dedicated area for specialist development, eventually taking production-critical responsibility across a range of public performances within the University and at external venues.

Industry placement and professional development modules are also a core part of this course, and you’ll have the opportunity to showcase your work to the industry through the creation of a final-year presentation.
