Approximately 24 students are accepted into Year One and Actors Centre Australia honours our contract and commitment to each of them. Our aim is to graduate every person at industry standard and also at each individual’s highest level of artistic and personal.
Many students have travelled from around Australia and New Zealand. For those unable to attend an audition in Sydney or Melbourne, ACA accepts audition by video.
These Actors should apply:
· those who have a passion and belief in the power of performance
· those truly committed to modern, contemporary training
· those who believe in a rigorous, respectful environment
· those dedicated to embracing professional demands
· those deeply curious and passionate about their artistic calling
· those dedicated to the industry and to creating a career of which they would be proud
Applicants require:
· High level of fitness
· HSC or equivalent
· High level of English literacy, ie reading/writing
· Completed Application Form plus passport sized photo
· Applicants must be 18yrs or older at course commencement
· Australian passport, Australian residency or for the entire duration of the course
NOTE: ACA does not have CRICOS status at present and as such cannot assist a student in gaining a visa.
Your Effective Audition 
For us to best respond to your work, we require two contrasting monologues of your choice - one Shakespeare piece and one contemporary piece. Each choice should be no more than two and a half minutes and should reflect the kind of roles in which you see yourself cast. The audition panel will generally consist of the Director of the course, along with Heads of Departments and various teaching staff.
The audition environment will be supportive and dynamic, allowing you to be fully effective and to work with a sense of pride. Welcome to our way of fostering artistic productivity.
Please allow approximately 4hrs for the audition. There are two sessions each day beginning at 9.30am and the second at 2.00pm.
Callback Workshops are the next stage in the audition process. You will be contacted if we require you to attend this round of workshops. The recalls will include some improvisation, body and vocal exercises. Please allow up to 5hrs for the callback workshop.
