AddressNIDA Theatre / NIDA Studio
Imagine having seen Mel Gibson play Romeo on the Parade Theatre stage in 1977. NIDA gives you the opportunity to see actors today that the world will celebrate tomorrow.
The National Institute of Dramatic Art trains AustraliaÂ’s most talented young people to become the worldÂ’s best actors, designers, directors, technicians and crafts people. They have helped Australia become an international leader in the entertainment industry.
These students stage a Play Season each year, and invite the general public to see the energy and enjoyment of their work in progress. This is a chance to see a great season of international and Australian plays at a very modest cost.
NIDAÂ’s previous graduates have achieved highly both in Australia and overseas. They have received Australian honours; have been awarded more than 200 fellowships, scholarships and grants; and have won well over 600 international and national awards, including OSCARS, BAFTAS, EMMYs and film festival awards. The roll of NIDA graduates reads like a whoÂ’s who of the entertainment arts, and includes Mel Gibson, Judy Davis, Cate Blanchett, Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin.
The following productions are staged by NIDA third year students.

THE TREATMENT
The Treatment is a ferocious satire on the ethics governing the showbiz world and a ruthless insight into the potentially brutal relationship between artist and subject. In her attempt to escape a husband who keeps her trapped indoors, the central character takes refuge in Manhattan, where two film producers offer to buy her story, but finish by buying her body and mind.
