Aims
1. Provide the student with opportunities to exercise professional working practices and to undertake rigorous and intense periods of creation and performance work.
2. Strengthen performative skills at pre-professional level in the public performance of projects with increased complexity and challenge.
3. Refine and portray informed strategies for rehearsal, process and performance development in a sustained and concentrated manner.
4. Provide opportunities to demonstrate a range of coherent performances and/or characters within ensemble contexts.
5. Provide opportunities to respond creatively to the differing and disparate needs of contexts, productions, and creatives.
6. Demonstrate a sophisticated level of own personal and inter-personal graduate skills (Team working, collaboration, discipline, professional etiquette).
Learning Outcomes
1.
Synthesise the use of appropriate professional working practices in undertaking a rigorous and intense period of performance work.
2.
Portray well-defined and coherent strategies for rehearsal, process and performance development in a sustained and intense manner, demonstrating
skills of synthesis and evaluation.
3.
Produce a range of coherent performances and/or characters within an ensemble context that combines the technical skills of the individual disciplines.
4.
Respond creatively and critically to the differing and disparate needs of contexts, productions, directors and/or choreographers demonstrating synthesis of knowledge and evaluation.
5.
Use personal and inter-personal graduate skills with industry professionals in a pro-duction environment (creative team working, collaboration).
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:The Performance & Production 3 module will be based around several simulated professional performance projects. It is anticipated that each student will have a substantial performance involvement in at least two productions.
Each production will be treated as if it were a professional production, and it is expected that the students will adopt professional working practices. The productions will be directed by IAB full-time staff and visiting professional directors and creatives. During the module students will be expected to bring together all their previous studies and demonstrate their capacity to apply their own personal and professional approach to performance.
Students will form part of a company and follow established professional patterns of creation and rehearsal phase, through to technical and dress rehearsals, and public performances. Other professional collaborators, such as composers or costume designers will be involved, where appropriate, to complete the professional experience, as well as theatre and technical staff.
Additional Information:This module equips the students with simulated professional production experience allow-ing students to demonstrate the culmination of their learning.
Assessment is via two public performance projects.
