MA Theatre Directing

East 15 Acting School’s MA Theatre Directing is a unique and renowned course designed specifically for those who are already practicing as or who wish to establish themselves as professional theatre directors.

It is open to emerging theatre directors from the UK and to students from around the world. Our teaching is driven by a wide range of leading directors and professional practitioners from the UK and overseas. The program benefits from its close ties with the London theatre world, which provides training expertise of the highest calibre and the professional networks that are vital to launching a Theatre Directing career.

For MA study, you take four modules during three consecutive terms, followed by a three-month period of independent study, at the end of which you present a Director’s Production Workbook (or, alternatively, your MA Dissertation).
