Seen any theatre lately? Been in a production?
Did you enjoy it? Was some of it, well... y'know.

UPstageWA is a company that wants to raise the bar on theatre. The aim is to provide opportunities for community theatre practitioners of all levels to learn from industry professionals and respected community theatre practitioners including fantastic networking opportunities for people in community theatre.

There will be a series of Discussion Panels and Master-classesi that "tell it like it is" on various topics. You may be confronted, you may not necessarily like everything you hear, but we assure you of the most interesting theatrical panel discussions you will ever experience.

Panel members will consist of industry professionals, respected community theatre practitioners, and people who have experience, background and credibility to shake us up a little.  One week later, the panel will be followed by a Master-class which will deal with the issues raised at the panel discussion.

When: Our first Discussion Panel will be on Acting, Tuesday, October 17th at 7.30pm.

Cost: Discussion Panel is $10 per person ($5 for students)
Master-class is $15 per person (10$ for students)
Master-class bookings will be opened at the Discussion Panel – Places limited for the Master-class

Agreed! In my uni course we not only do movement, we do aspects of dance, tai chi and yoga... along with voice training. All these things allow the actor to center themselves within their body and find the small differences between them as a person and the character they are portreying. Not to mention a deeper understanding of the person/character in the space of a stage. Oh, how I think how ignorant I was before I started my course.
