I am currently a 3rd year set and Costume design student at WAAPA, The audition process is not that hard, as long as you are prepared.

It is only true for Acting and musical theater that "life Experience is a must"

for the technical side ie Production and Design courses they look for maturaty and to see if you are dedicated to the course. there are many school leavers in Staging, Stage managment, lighting, Design and sound....

just all you future waapa students BE PREPARED FOR A VERY DEMANDING 3 YEARS... As a designer I can be at school for up to 80hours a week !!! Which means NO life NO job and only WAAPA Friends. its hard BUT A LOT OF FUN!!!

GOOD LUCK ALL
