Insurance and firm choices

I really need to make a decision and despite constant research of courses I still cant seem too choose between University of York or UCL.

The York course -Theatre: Writing, Directing and Performance
The UCL course - Creative arts and Humanities

The only problem I'm having is that the ucl course was started last year and I can't seem to find much information about it, for example facilities, performance to academic ratio, teaching method.

with that I also have UCA which only downfall is the lack of facilities specifically for the course.

I just need to make a choice so that I can only apply for accommodation and stop thinking about this during exams

If you could give me some advice i would really appreciate it!

Go to York.

If you interested in the more practical aspects of Theatre - and working in the Theatre - then go for the course at York,
Or do you want a more academic course like UCL that is more theory and context, allows study of a range of arts and humanities subjects and will not have a career focus.

I have more interest in the practical definitely. I know York is also academic as well, and I think its main downfall is that it's far from family (I live in oxford).

When looking through the different modules at UCL, it seems practical, but I'm not sure how much of that is for show
