Explore and refine your artistic voice, and choose a programme that will propel your innovative arts career.
Responding to an evolving arts landscape, this programme blends creative, technical, digital, professional, and entrepreneurial skills. Through dynamic practical work, industry-focused learning, and critical exploration, you’ll refine and apply choreographic and dance practices across a range of contexts.
You’ll explore choreography both for its artistic potential and for its relevance to today’s social and political questions. As a graduate, you’ll leave with the practical capabilities to thrive in the arts sector and with the vision to drive meaningful change, expanding the reach of choreography across stage, screen, policy, and social action.
Applicants are required to provide a video with one or two examples of recent choreographic practice. The work should be accompanied by a short statement which reveals the applicant's intention and interest in making this particular work.
