BA Drama and Theatre / History

at Aberystwyth University

A joint honours degree in Drama and Theatre with History allows you to combine your interest in drama, theatre and performance with the study of history. You will benefit from the expertise of lecturers in both departments and develop key skills such as critical thinking, analysis and communication. When studying Drama and Theatre, you will explore the vast possibilities of theatre, engage with both practice and theory and develop as a creative thinker. In History you can choose to study medieval through to modern history and focus on a broad geographical spread from Britain and Europe to Asia and beyond. This degree brings together theory and practice in both fields allowing students to produce and take part in theatrical productions and examine key texts, as well as exploring archival treasures and deciphering historical artefacts.
