Overview

This Performing Arts (Hons) programme at BIMM University consists of two pathways: Acting for the 21st Century and Contemporary Musical Theatre; each providing in-depth training shaped by current industry trends.

The Two Pathways

Contemporary Musical Theatre: The landscape of musical theatre is changing. Shows are being produced which require performers who are skilled in acting as much as the other disciplines, and in some cases more so, therefore there are two strands to our Contemporary Musical Theatre pathway.

Strand 1: Contemporary Musical Theatre

Strand 2: Musical Theatre

Acting for the 21st Century: The industry has changed and continues to do so. It is no longer simply a case of spending three years training and then sitting back waiting for your agent to call. Actors in the contemporary world of stage, film and television need not only to be talented and skilled, but also adaptable, entrepreneurial and passionate about what they do.
