heya fellow artisans...first time on here, but have had great fun reading the different postings about the different drama schools we've got here. anyway, to the point. I have just rec by audition pack for WAAPA's Advanced Diplome in Acting and was a little surprised that they do not seem to be asking for a song as part of the audition. I realise it is an acting course, unlike the Musical Theatre, where obviously a greater focus is put on singing than in the acting course, but still i was a little surprise particuarly because pretty much every other school i have looked at asks you to sing a little something, more to give them an idea of your voice...almost like its a bonus, or can tip the scales, as well as showing them that you are prepared to just get up and sing. but nothing like this was mentioned at WAAPA. Is this right or will i have to sing a song? cheers
