Nowadays, the world of culture and entertainment offers great job opportunities. The Performing Arts, with its three routes (artist, filmmaker, producer), is able to train students capable of working in theater, film, television, museums, as well as their own cultural startup.
The performing arts essentially have three essential and inseparable elements, which are the interpretation, the stage and the receiving public. In this sense, it is a living and ephemeral art.
The stage, on the other hand, can be in a building or space specifically created for the artistic interpretation, or it can be in any other place, like in the street.
The means of expression of the performing arts are varied, ranging from speech and action, to sound and visual resources, all of which, conjugated and combined harmonically, according to the aesthetic and conceptual assumptions applied, are merged to produce an aesthetic experience
Although they are fundamentally three artistic disciplines that are represented in the scenarios such as theater, dance and music, these in turn are subdivided or conjugated in many others, such as, for example, opera, zarzuela, musical theater , the performance, the cabaret, the recital, the guiñoles, the puppets or the circus, among others.
One thing in common is the performing arts: they all have a director in charge of coordinating the elements that make up the stage (lighting, decoration, costumes, setting) and the interpretation to achieve transmit a living artistic representation.
Finally, the performing arts are also a career that can be studied at the university level, during which fundamental subjects are taught to understand the artistic phenomenon and reflect on it, but also to train as interpreters or cultural managers.
