    Melbourne Uni Colleges

    Hey Kiddokyo, I'm at Queen's at the moment, as a very enthused fresher! It's an excellent college, and very competitive to get into. The intake of freshers next year in particular will be very very competitive as many of the first and second years currently residing at Queen's intend to stay...

    Drama Schools

    If you're going to go to any of the smaller places I'd do ACA...but a lot of their graduates just do chorus work for major musicals. If you're serious about becoming a professional performer I'd seriously consider WAAPA acting course and VCAs...but I'd go WAAPA performance over VCA. And as...

    NIDA Open Day

    I'm at VCA... NIDA is rich, too rich for it's own good. Little over-rated. VCA is poor, like too poor but we make do...we're the best training institution because Melbourne Theatre Company is being built right next door to our School of Drama...and I mean come on, everyone wants Australia's...

    lol Amazing

    Fantastic... but I've had a unique experience, you need to be more specific...and I'm living in a residential college, which apparently makes the whole experience 10 times better.

    lol Amazing

    It's because BOS was originally created for HSC students and only within the last two years has started to appeal to victorian students. And there are Melb uni people on this forum. I'm one of them.

    Re-Gaining Motivation...

    ALMOST everyone goes through this stage. I left my IP for 3 weeks and didn't look at it. Came back to it, found that I was doing shit in comparison to others in my class so I hauled my arse into gear and just went crazy with it. It helps. Go off with it. Sing it. Shout it. Roll around...

    Character development

    What an excellent question! I will not back up my answers with any sexy BOS theories as I am an old, old girl and am not sure if they have changed (since 2004). However, this is how I developed my character (all of which was documented in my logbook!) - extractions from the script were the...

    Just when you think you've got them...
