BAPP Arts has come to an end!

This is a bit late in posting as we had Oral Presentations over a week ago now but I wanted to round this blog off and conclude my BAPP Arts Journey.

Here is some advice that I would pass on to anyone starting on the Degree:


  1. Read through the handbooks and Readers many, many times! - Before you start it's so good to have an overview of what you have to do.
  2. Plan your time effectively - I was super busy with performing contracts and teaching work so I always set aside a few hours per week to get focussed and get the work done.
  3. Check blogs regularly - It can be quite lonely on the course, especially if you are confused with what to do.  Keep in the loop by checking up on other peoples progress.
  4. Try find a group of people with a similar inquiry to you that you can keep in contact with.  I had a facebook group and it was so handy if you had a quick question to ask!

Taking on this BAPP Arts challenge the year after I graduated was perfect for me as I could keep focussed and continue to improve my professional career.  I feel motivated to keep studying and learning!

Inquiry submitted - Oral Presentation now!

I am feeling so relieved now that the inquiry and professional artefact has been submitted.  With two shows a day for 5 weeks I was concerned that I would not be able to finish the inquiry to the best of my ability.  But after a lot of early mornings, I am happy with what I have submitted and am now finished my Panto contract.  Only oral presentation to go!
