Brighton Campus celebrates graduation with actor Adam Garcia

13 November, 2024

Our Brighton campus recently celebrated their annual graduation ceremony, with students from BIMM Music Institute, Screen and Film School, and Institute for Contemporary Theatre (Now Performers College Brighton) receiving their degrees at the Brighton Dome.

Adam Garcia

Olivier Award-nominated performer Adam Garcia, known for his roles across film, television, and West End productions, delivered an inspiring speech to our BA (Hons) Performing Arts graduates. Currently starring in the UK tour of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Garcia addressed the graduates:

“Be strong and bold, even if it’s a wrong choice. Be committed to who you are and what you do and be directable.

You’ve chosen to be artists, you’ve chosen to be creators, and we all await what you will produce, what experiences you will share with everyone, and the impact you will have with the stories you tell.”

The ceremony also featured legendary music manager Alan McGee and accomplished film director Michele D’Acosta.

Martin Wright, Dean of BIMM University’s Brighton Campus, described the ceremony as a milestone event, saying:

“The atmosphere from the graduates, parents and carers was electric… Our guests, Adam Garcia, Michele D’Acosta, and Alan McGee, congratulated each graduate with a handshake.

We all agree this is the best day of the year; seeing our talented graduates complete a huge milestone in their career development. We wish them the very best for all their endeavours in the future.”

The 2024 graduates join BIMM University’s extensive alumni network, now making strides in creative industries across the UK and beyond.
