Do you aspire to run your own theatre company or have a great idea for a Performing Arts business or project?Do you want to keep developing your vocational skill? Actor, singer, producer, director?Do you want to work in the Performing Arts industry but don’t know where you fit in?HND Professional Performance Practice is a programme designed with our industry partners to develop not just your craft at the next level, but also to give you the opportunities and experience of applying your skills in a professional environment ultimately with a view to setting up your own enterprise.There is a perception that sustainable employment in the Performing Arts sector is based solely on chance and happenstance – this is not necessarily the case! There are many small to medium sized enterprises thriving, not only in the region but nationally, due to vision, drive and expertise, such as dance or theatre companies.We have spent time consulting with our industry partners to develop a programme that allows you to build on the skills you have, provides an opportunity for you to gain experience applying them in the real world and gives you the understanding to develop and launch your own business.
