School of Media and Performing Arts

There is so much creativity to enjoy across a month of events from 2 April-3 May.

At the heart of all our Media and Performing Arts events lies the university’s mission: championing collaboration and innovation to create better futures.

You will have the opportunity to see beautiful photography works displayed outside on our award-winning sustainable campus by Starley Gardens; immerse yourself in surprising virtual worlds captured by the virtual reality (VR) headsets in our digital studio spaces; catch the vibe of live music and theatre shows as we screen our students’ performances in Square One; explore the thought-provoking writing and compelling films and videos of our many other talented students displayed on digital plinths in our TV Studio – The Tank.

All our students work with their future careers in the creative industries in mind – they are the storytellers of our future - shaping the content that will excite, challenge and provoke us in the decades to come. We are delighted that we will be joined by recent alumni from all our courses at the awards ceremony in Square One on Thursday 2 May, to recognise the outstanding work of our second- and third-year students.
