If it was then, why do o many continue to live, work, play and succeed. Take Heath Ledge - Perth through and through - Was 'discovered' in Perth, so don't tell me about agents that can't 'steal' you as you say. Many an actor has been stolen from Perth. Many an actor has left Perth also to be found.
I'd be interested as to where you garner your facts from because while they hold fragments of truth, the are gross exaggerations of reality. WAAPA is world renowned for a reason. You obviously are unaware or have been rejected once before. The do accept a very short list, but then so do most of the world's best theatre/musical schools, and there are lots of hopefuls.
That all said and done, getting into places like WAAPA or NIDA, RADA, etc are not the be-all. There are many paths into professional performance.
