Auditions for Drama Institutions...
Sun, 18 Nov 2001, 01:33 amWell, its that time of the year again, the time that we can look forward to auditions for the performing arts courses all over Australia.
I was wondering how many people on the site have auditions coming up over the next few months/weeks for WAAPA or NIDA or VCA, or all of them as it may very well be.
My auditions are now only two weeks away for Musical theatre and Classical music at WAAPA.
NIDA has already had their auditions haven't they? How did people go?? I like to hear about these things... :)
C'mon people, share!! It's good therapy.

Tue, 4 Dec 2001, 04:08 amSorry, but from a marketing point of view the proposed name change /reversal is pathetic.
Sounds like the usual Curtin Uni decision made by the almighty powers that be with no reference to the real world.
It looks uncommomly like _if_ any marketing expertise was sought, then either it's being disregarded or the people consulted were told what their advice should be.
"The Hayman' is a name that rolls easily off the tongue, is easily remembered and can/ has engendered over the years a fond regard from both performers & patrons.
Curtin THeatre will have to remain just that - Curtin Theatre, to distinguish it from Curtin Uni.
Besides, I'm afraid "The Curtin" does not have that same ring to it,
*it sounds cold & clinical
*it will raise doubt as to whether the writer can actually spell ("maybe they meant the theatre curtain???")
*people will think it's the Uni being referred to & the theatre will lose it's unique recognition factor.
Why the push to shoot themselves in the foot?
Or is this the first stage in a plan to reduce public recognition, see ticket sales fall, rationalise losses by reducing facilities & reducing/eliminating public performances.
(**Even lecture theatres get their foyers refurbished**)
Cultural courses/facilities have always been regarded with some scpticism/suspicion by the "Tech Heads" at Curtin.
