This module is designed to enable students to understand and articulate research as a means to enrich and deepen their own personal processes and artistry. Discussion of acting and actor training, and their relevant forms of performance- and practice-led research, will help develop frameworks of research inquiries and methods for staging practice-based investigations. The study of research will draw on co-requisite subjects (productions, studio work) as well as in-class activities (seminars, lectures, practical applications).
