Description

Candidates will be required to develop and present a live performance in a public venue, and later to submit a critical commentary.

The performance will embody the results of the research investigation, which will investigate the contexts, theoretical influences, aesthetic elements and performance making processes of the project. The critical commentary will be an explication and analysis of the performance research project and will address methodological and theoretical issues that arise during the research investigation.
