Aims

To enhance students ability to deal with advanced concepts, philosophies and critical frameworks appropriate to musical theatre practice research; To equip students with appropriate enhanced skills in use of supporting technologies in designing and proposing a piece of focused academic research. To make students aware of all ethical and academic propriety issues and practices connected to LJMU research. To enable students to develop their independent ideas for a final written dissertation.

Module Content

Outline Syllabus:Lectures will offer two main strands of knowledge delivery. The first is that of critical concepts and frameworks allied to research methodologies appropriate to musical theatre and broader drama practice. The second is that of the practical aspects of proposing and undertaking research – potential methods, forms of research, ethical considerations and policies, use of practice in and as outcomes of research, presentation, referencing and style. Group tutorials will allow students to articulate their proposal ideas and gain feedback from peers and tutor as part of the development of the proposal.
Module Overview:
To enhance students ability to deal with advanced concepts, philosophies and critical frameworks appropriate to musical theatre practice research; To equip students with appropriate enhanced skills in use of supporting technologies in designing and proposing a piece of focused academic research. To make students aware of all ethical and academic propriety issues and practices connected to LJMU research. To enable students to develop their independent ideas for a final written dissertation. This module marries conceptual thinking with practical methodologies for research into performance, and though the assessment word count for the summative assessment submission is relatively limited at this level it aims to promote clarity of thought and determine the ability to synthesise both strands of the work into a focused research proposal.
