You can catch Darren in Griffin Theatre's current production, Songket, at the Opera House.
Darren will be presenting to us his perspective of:
- the current and future entertainment industry outlook for Asian-Australians

- his personal experiences of being an actor, a director and a producer
We will also be having some improvisation acting exercises after the talk.
This seminar will also be an informal opportunity for all parties interested in Aha! to get together and discuss Aha!'s direction with the Committee. Anyone interested in finding out more about Aha! membership and Aha!'s future direction are invited to attend.
