MA Creative Practice: Transdisciplinary

Trinity Laban

Introduction

The MA/MFA Creative Practice: Transdisciplinary offers a unique opportunity to place your interdisciplinary practice in transformative dialogue with leading dance and movement practitioners. The programme is designed to provide a flexible and bespoke programme of study, enabling you to choose from a range of modules delivered by Trinity Laban.

MA/MFA Creative Practice supports both emergent and professional (dance) artists in the further development of their practice.

Key Features

• Flexible curriculum lets you develop existing specialisms and pursue new skills, such as performance making, embodied writing or film making.


• Choreological Practice will provide a framework and terminology for investigation and analysis of human movement.


• Practical investigations aim to enhance observation skills and develop movement literacy.


• The Transdisciplinary pathway offers a bespoke and supported space to challenge your assumptions, bring clarity, and articulate your values and priorities as an artist and creative practitioner.


• An interdisciplinary approach allows development and articulation of your individual research.

How will I be assessed?

• Practical presentation and supporting documentation

Usually, following a practical assessment task, there will be an opportunity to discuss the outcome with tutors. This is normally led by tutors but also includes opportunities for peer involvement.

• Essay or proposal

In some modules, the assessment task is wholly written in the form of an essay or proposal and does not include a practical component.

Alumni Destinations

Alumni have gone on to careers as performers, choreographers, visual, film, and multi-media artists, writers, and teachers. They have had their work programmed in international festivals and performance platforms, pursued further study and published research in peer-reviewed journals.
