UNIVERSITY OF BRISTOL, DEPARTMENT OF DRAMA - THEATRE, FILM, TELEVISION

Description

Established in 1947, ours was the first department at a British University dedicated to the study of Drama in performance. We were also the first to introduce the practical and theoretical study of film and television. Our resources include the Wickham Theatre, an adaptable space where its productions are presented and practical theatre teaching takes place; the Brandt Cinema and video viewing complex which serve the study of film and television; and the internationally recognised Theatre Collection which is both a theatre archive and a reference library. The Department has broadcast-standard film and video making equipment.
