At Surrey, we pride ourselves on producing graduates that are confident, creative and technically skilled with the ability and stamina to succeed in the contemporary entertainment industry.
Our programme achieved 91% overall satisfaction in the National Student Survey (NSS) 2018. On our Theatre Production programme you will work in close collaboration with fellow students at the world-renowned Guildford School of Acting to deliver a variety of productions within our modern, large and well-equipped Ivy Arts Centre theatre.
Studies begin with a comprehensive introduction to all core subjects relating to professional theatre production. You will receive teaching and build experience in a range of skills including sound, lighting, stage management, scenic arts and digital scenography.
As you progress through the programme, you will be able to select one dedicated area for specialist development, eventually taking senior creative or production-critical responsibility across a range of public performances within the University and at external venues.
