Intending students should note that some additional expenditure is required for some six to eight stipulated performances during the year. Block bookings are sometimes arranged and accordingly prices are as low as possible. Further information about all aspects of theatre and drama subjects is available in theatre and drama course brochures obtainable from the Department. There is a strict quota on enrolments in Drama 1 TKP, Drama 1 PBP and Drama 1 CAT, with three basic criteria for selection. All students are asked to complete a questionnaire at the time of enrolment.
Final selection is based on tertiary entrance rank, the questionnaire and a short interview.
Applicants will be informed of their status as soon as possible after selection is completed. Unsuccessful applicants must formally vary their enrolment to delete the first-year drama subjects. Quotas in later year subjects All enrolments are subject to quota and unless otherwise stated in the subject description, quota places are allocated on academic merit, with preference being given to third-year students majoring in drama. Presentations In Drama 1 PBP and several other subjects, students are required to prepare, in small groups, selected scenes from plays or group-devised scripts for performance to and subsequent discussion with, other students taking the subject. Owing to timetabling difficulties, it is normally necessary for students to attend on one or more evenings or weekend days during the semester for the presentations.
