Australian Academy of Dramatic Art???
Sat, 26 July 2003, 08:48 pmHi,
Anyone know much about the Australian Academy of Dramatic Art? Its in Sydney (Surry Hills)
Does anyone here have any personal experiences with AADA? How reputable is it? How does it compare with NIDA/WAAPA/VCA?
Their website is OK, but what I'm really after is the inside knowledge
Thanks for that,
F.

It is such a shame to see a school with such talented teachers being destroyed singlehandedly by this Dictator storming the corridors trying to gain more power. Normally I would advise that you attend the school if you wish and just put up with her but when it comes to your money you might want to think twice before investing it into this school. You may only get into your 2nd year before she decides to kick you out without reason. You then have to start all over again at another acting school paying again for what you have already learnt so I suggest starting from scratch at a reliable school! She constantly interupts lessons by just barging in and insisting all eyes on on her and enjoys be-littling the teachers infront of the students to show her superiority! She has a short (if even existant) list of achievements to hold to her name and uses scare tactics to keep her students in fear of her.
Some of her relationships with the students are also questionable to say the least. I have heard various rumours of inproper arrangements she has organised with certain students.
