Collaboration is at the heart of design for stage. Students will develop skills in creative and conceptual collaboration and explore methods for undertaking collaborative practice in order to develop a practical understanding of interdisciplinary collaboration.
In developing these skills, students will be working and interacting with others involved in the conceptualising of work for the stage, collaborating with other designers, directors, choreographers and key creatives to build teams and explore the essential connections between their practices.
