  • Objectives
    The Bachelor of Theatre (Specialisation) includes specialisations Musical Theatre (the 'triple-threat'), Drama (Actor's craft) and Dance (contemporary and classical). This program requires three years of full-time or six years of part-time study to complete. The program is unique in Queensland in that all three specialisations are offered within the same, purpose-built space. Even though there are three separate pathways through the program that can be chosen, the degree itself maintains a carefully designed cohesion and integrated structure, thereby maximising opportunities for cross-collaboration, production work and community engagement.
