WAAPA to commence Audition Tour

Verge by Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts DanceThe Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) will soon launch its audition tour for students across the country wanting to try out for 2018 intake to its Undergraduate Courses or Postgraduate Courses.

 

WAAPA’s Dance programs prepare classical and contemporary dance artists through teaching methods designed to develop and refine the skills of each individual. Courses are intensive and performance based, with students averaging 35-40 contact hours per week. In addition to daily classes with credentialed teaching staff, students receive the opportunity to perform in three performance seasons per year, allowing them to regularly work with visiting national and international choreographers.

 

WAAPA Undergraduate Dance Courses include: CUA50113 Diploma of Dance (Elite Performance); CUA60113 Advanced Diploma of Dance (Elite Performance); and Bachelor of Arts (Dance). Postgraduate Dance Courses include: Bachelor of Arts (Dance) Honours and Master of Arts (Performing Arts). Postgraduate Dance students perform with LINK Dance Company.
