Curious about W.A.

I can't help but notice the large amount of auditions that are held in W.A. Can anyone tell me what the theatre scene is like over there?

Something else which is possibly an interesting observation about WA...

I know there are artists in Sydney (and I would assume Melbourne and other cities) who solely concentrate on radio voiceovers, for instance...or perform exclusively in musicals...or act in a TV series but don't get theatre offers, etc - and it's possible to sustain a living.

The bulk of actors in Perth who are making any income are pretty well forced by the market to be jacks-of-all-trades; theatre, film, TV and radio commercials, documentary voiceovers, variety, musicals, improv, standup, tutoring...they have a go at the lot.



How does this compare with other places, say Brisbane?
