DAMS Theatre, Music, Dance
The Master’s Degree in DAMS Theatre, Music, Dance offers advanced academic and practical training in the performing arts, exploring the historical, theoretical, and technical dimensions of live performance. Centred on theatre, music, and dance as expressive and relational practices, the programme engages students with both the artistic and organisational aspects of performance culture. It combines in-depth disciplinary study with critical reflection on the role of the performing arts in society, education, and cultural life.
Structured around two main tracks—Theatre and Dance, and Music—the programme blends theoretical seminars with practical workshops, internships, and collaborations with leading cultural institutions. Teaching incorporates perspectives from anthropology, sociology, visual culture, and arts management, fostering an integrated view of the arts. Learning is supported by hands-on experience at partner venues such as Teatro Palladium and the University Library of the Arts, offering direct involvement in production and curatorship.
Graduates pursue careers as artistic curators, cultural producers, media consultants, educators, and arts managers in both public and private contexts. The programme also offers access to doctoral studies and teacher training where applicable. The degree concludes with an original thesis, which reflects the student’s ability to apply critical and creative skills to the analysis, planning, or promotion of artistic work within contemporary cultural systems.
