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

Learning

Someone said to me that "life is a classroom . . ." forget the rest lol. The point being though that you never stop learning and there are those who wish they had never stopped learning and then there are those who wish they would finish learning and get on with it. Theatre and the entertainment industry is one of those places where people cannot stop learning. The industry becomes stagnant and all that will be produced are cheesy cheap musicals with a stereotypical love story playing to a small audience. Logos I am happy to say I do not see myself as unwilling to learn from those who have more experience then myself - and lets say that's just about everyone here so far. Sure people may become arrogant enough to believe they don't need to learn any more - whether it be formal training or otherwise - but there are those who will refuse to cease learning and thus bring the industry forwards and develop the world in general. ~ Tari The Writer is a child forever listening at the keyhole of the adult world.
