Catch 22
Wed, 8 Feb 2006, 02:48 pmI'm a 24 year old female in Perth trying to break into the musical theatre/performing arts area. Finding it to be a catch 22 auditioning for pro/am productions which seem to end up taking on "qualified" individuals anyway (whether they be a waapa or nida grad)... then auditioning for waapa at the end of the year, when they like to see you've been proactive in participating in these pro/am productions in your personal statement. How does one win?! Anyone else finding it tough?

I think Tina raises a good point. Look at it as if you were applying for a job. For a lot of us, that is what we want from this industry, a JOB! Sometimes this can be overlooked by ourselves, or others, and we end up working under lesser conditions than we are entitled to or doing things as favours because it just so happens that we really enjoy our Jobs.
Just like to thank Equity for trying to keep everyone above board.
Turns out this isn;t really related to this thread, but still felt like adding it.
