Hey I have just spoken to a couple of girls who have left Brent Street before they finished the performing arts course, they said its gone down hill. Does anyone in NSW know whats happening there. When you read some of the musical theatre programs that tell you where the artists have studied, some say Brent Street but have moved on to other teaching facilities to study musical theatre.

I was looking at Brent Street but they say its just a dance school with fifty or more to a class. Its alot of money to pay for "just a dance school" And not even their professionals are getting any work

i have been a student at brent st for many years...trained there most of my life..i am now considering my departure.although it offered me the best training in the early years.i must say it has most definatley in the recent years gone downhill. everything about it has changed dramtically. now im finding that depending on how much money you pay will determine how well you are treated. it doesnt matter if youve been there a decade, if your not paying as much as another student whose only been there a week you'll be treated like crap. things used to be better so much better. i guess things just got really out of hand when they opened that excuse for a school TDHS. loyalty has been completley lost. it is no longer the fair, happy, family it once was. dollar signs are now in everyones eyes. im sure many would agree?
