Hello my name is Petruzka De Wee. I just wanted to know if it was possible if you audion or apply for this college, could you go for music and dance or will it be difficult to balance the two?
Hello Petruzka, it is in fact the opposite. We try and encourage all our students to be rounded artists. You will be exposed to acting, singing and dancing in performance for both stage and film. Part of our education is how to manage and balance a career in the arts. We are doing interviews on Saturdays for our 2019 intake, let me know if you would like to book an appointment.
