Hey there Guys. Im a bit upset with this girl who just got into Brent Street. She went to the audition but got in anyways cos of the contacts she knew. She said anyone auditioning for WAAPA is mad cos its too far away and all the paid work is in Sydney, which she is close to. She has contacts who will get her jobs anywhere.

I didnt want to say anything but my sisters friend has just come back from Brent Street and she left because not even the professionals there were getting work let alone new grads. Well I think its a 1 year Diploma Course.

Hey is it better to go to Sydney to do that course and be near paid work or try out for WAAPA, what are the benefits. I have my heart set on WAAPA.

All talk and no action?

> alot of talk and no action goes on in here.

Gee Matt, you've been here all of, what, ten minutes? And you've got it all worked out?

:-)

I can understand people taking umbrage at some of the more caustic remarks about the various schools, but tarring us all with the same brush is a bit rich, don't you think?

Cheers
Grant
