**About the Course** The BA (Hons) Performing Arts consists of three pathways: Musical Theatre, Hip-Hop Artistry and Acting. Each provide in-depth training shaped by current industry trends. Technique, work ethic, confidence and self-awareness are areas of focus which will give you the tools required to succeed in meeting the demands of the business. In the third year, you have the chance to select from specific options to meet the needs of the industry. Here you can diversify your training and hone in on areas you may have previously explored in less depth. This is a crucial element of training as you are given the opportunity to explore your identity as an emerging creative artist. This course encourages independence, entrepreneurialism and innovation because these qualities will be required of any performer entering the contemporary performing arts industry. We don’t want you just to get work, we want you to make work. All learning is underpinned by regular mental and physical resilience classes; another key element of your training. **The Three Pathways:** **Musical Theatre** Being a musical theater performer today means you need a skillset that makes you unique.
