This trailblazing MA invites you to develop and refine your screen-based practice.
Screendance encompasses a wide range of practices and we embrace its multidisciplinary nature and subject it to critical investigation.
The course is practice-led; it will evolve your skills and perspectives. We will challenge you to think about your work in a contemporary critical context. What drives your work? How does your work interact with audiences, other arts sectors, and wider society? A wide range of guest artists will expand your practice and inquiry.
London Contemporary Dance School promotes learner-centred teaching. Seminars and personal tutorials build upon your ideas, interests, skills and artistic practice. We foster a vibrant community of learning among our students and faculty.

- Develop a confident, articulate independent practice
- Combine practical experimentation, contextual research, and public-facing engagement
- Evolve a wider vision of your practice and how it relates to the contemporary world
- Contribute to the development of the field of screendance through practice and research
