WAAPA AUDITIONS!!
Fri, 7 Oct 2005, 11:49 pmUm hi guys! wow what an amazing forum! I am, like so amazed how much you guys all know about like, acting and stuff! I heard off my friend dulcie at the clinic that waapa was doing auditions for people soon.... my mum has always said i'm such a character, and I was thinking, i reckon i could be a performer in a big hollywood musical! i cant really sing that good - only in the shower using my shampoo as the microphone!! haha I heard they teach you singing and stuff at the academy, so yeh. I reckon it wud be wicked to be in a place where everyone is so talented and amazing singers. I wanted to get advice on my audition.... I started writing my audition monologue and me and my friend sharon, who did ballet until she was, like, 14, is helping mewith a creative dance...how long should it be? and is it cool if i wear my leotard? what do you people reckon?>

Not being allowed to

Not being allowed to audition for anything outside of the course is standard at any acting school. But trust me, when studying full time and working a regular job part time to pay the rent- you've got no time or energy to focus on anything else. A course like this is all consuming. I studied at another institution, but without a doubt, WAAPA churns out a lot of talent.
All of the nasty talk about Perth? Never been there myself, but the city in which you study is irrelevant. I studied in the same state as my family and never saw them. Just no time. Your class mates become your family, and acting students are usually too poor to go out shopping and partying. (Cheap wine and pizza nights- yeah!)
Think seriously before taking on something like this.. It's a huge decision- I had the best and worst 3 years of my life-and I would change a second of it.
As for the original comment- I don't think I can take it seriously. For those actually interested in auditioning- NEVER write your own audition monologue!!
