Welcome to this exhibition of work from our graduating year of BA (Hons) Theatre Practice, showcasing their accomplishments through artefacts, documents, images, sound, digital presentations and process work, all of which has manifested in both the live and digital realms over the last three years of their studies.

The last two years have been challenging for the live performance industries, posing ways in which we have had to adapt our interface with audiences and collaborators. This challenge has been tough but also presented amazing opportunity for experimentation and a demonstration of how adaptable performance makers are. None more so than in the range of work presented in this exhibition. It truly captures the vein of determination and creativity running through our students, despite the continual parameter shifts they have navigated.

Their tenacity will equip them well for their professional journey ahead, having developed the skill to analyse, adapt and evolve their practice within the fluid and ever-changing landscape of the cultural industries. Now, more than ever in recent years, we see a radically different sector evolving, recognising the responsibility we have to society, our well-being, sustainable practices and the creative economy.  These students graduating from the BA Theatre Practice will build on their achievements in the last three years and thrive in that environment, with the continued support from their BATP community.

We hope you enjoy exploring and celebrating the product of their three years in this exhibition and equally support them, as we will, in their careers moving forward.
