BA (Hons) Performing Arts (Top-up)

If you hold a UK Level 5 qualification (or equivalent) or a Trinity College London Professional Diploma in Performing Arts or a similar subject and wish to earn a full honours degree, our flagship BA (Hons) in Performing Arts and its two unique pathways, provides in-depth training shaped by current industry trends.

Our specialised one-year Degree Top-up programme has been designed to enable committed performers to extend their understanding of performing arts in either: Contemporary Musical Theatre or Acting for the 21st Century.

The course offers students and practitioners the opportunity to explore aspects of these pathways not usually addressed in vocational training and provides access to further HE study and enhanced employment opportunities when considering career progression.

As part of our Top Up Degree, you have the chance to select from specific options to meet the needs of the industry. Here you can diversify your training and home in on areas you may have previously explored in less depth. This is a crucial element of training as you can explore your identity as an emerging creative artist.
