A year at LIPA

This video, produced for our July 2024 Graduation Ceremony, highlights some of the many projects and performances our graduating class worked on, as well as some of the special guests we welcomed to LIPA. The music is ‘Signs of Life’, written, co-produced and sung by graduating student Katya Madeleine Birkeland, an alternative pop artist from Oslo.

What makes us different

LIPA is a world leading centre of excellence for the training of those who make performance possible.  An international community of performers, creatives, technicians, filmmakers and business people who learn by working together with industry partners on fully realised productions and projects.
