Taught by the School of Performance and Cultural Industries, in collaboration with Leeds University Business School, this course will develop your knowledge and understanding of theatre, performance, cultural industries and entrepreneurship.<br/><br/>You’ll develop your own creative practice working collaboratively in our specialist studios, in our on-campus professional theatre, stage@leeds, and through using digital technologies. You’ll also work with external partners and community groups and be introduced to a range of devising, creative, organisational and management techniques.<br/><br/>The course will explore the historical and cultural contexts of theatre, innovations in practice, performance design, arts management, cultural theory, performance technologies, composition and devising, and the wider impact of the creative and cultural industries.<br/><br/>A distinctive feature of the course is an engagement with the social impact agenda. Youll be invited to interrogate and practice the ways in which performance can make a difference to society and to consider themes such as sustainability, ethics, responsibility and inclusivity. You reflect on the impact that performance has on societies and to develop a range of skills so that you can become an advocate of the creative arts and an entrepreneurial global citizen.
