Student Handbook 2022 student handbook 2022 1 Showfit has fast become one of Australia’s most vital courses for young performers — Music Showfit is a 1 year full- time Musical Theatre course with the optional 2nd year for students who wish to further develop their training. Students will work alongside Australia's elite musical theatre teachers as well as industry professionals from around the world. Dance We provide our graduates with a strong skill base across all disciplines of musical theatre. We strongly believe that the best training for our industry should be practical, flexible, personalized and of the highest standard and relevance. In order to serve this best, Showfit Drama remains a non-accredited course, meaning that students are ineligible for government supports such as Centrelink or HECS-HELP, however this allows us to remain as relevant and flexible as possible with our syllabus. Showfit provides a strong grounding in acting technique including Stanislavsky fundamentals, voice, movement, scene work and improvisation. Students are also trained in audition technique and study the history of musical theatre. Many students have found Showfit to be the perfect bridging course to go on and further their studies at WAAPA, VCA and NIDA. Other Showfit students have started working within the profession straight away. 2 3 Katherine Tonkin Head of Acting Mathew Frank Head of Music Leanne White Head of Dance Freya List Dance Co-ordinator Katherine has worked with a number Mathew Frank has worked throughout Leanne danced professionally for over 23 years Freya List is an innovative Australian of Australia’s leading mainstage and Australia and internationally as a Musical in shows such as Evita, Oklahoma, Song and choreographer with a unique approach to independent theatre companies, as Director, Conductor, Composer, Performer Dance (where she was nominated for an “Adam story telling.

  • Jesus, Queen of Heaven by Jo Clifford
    Theatre works And BEN ANDERSON present THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JESUS, QUEEN OF HEAVEN BY JO CLIFFORD 30 APR - 8 may THEATRE WORKS 14 ACLAND STREET, ST KILDA THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO WRITER’S NOTE | JO CLIFFORD When I first wrote and performed Queen Jesus in Glasgow, back in 2009, I was afraid people JESUS, QUEEN might find her dull. I was wrong about that. OF HEAVEN I was very frightened and distressed by all the hatred she inspired back then. Hatred that came in from all over the world. 30 APR - 8 mAY But the hate taught me her words mattered and I should work to keep her alive. THEATRE WORKS So I did. And I discovered that performing her was a powerful act of resistance against the 14 ACLAND STREET, ST KILDA shame and fear that had possessed me since the time I was a child and knew that I wasn’t a boy. A shame that touches everybody. Because none of us quite measure up to the gender we’re supposed to be. And since then she’s helped many others resist in so many places in the world. All over the UK, all over Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Cabo Verde, Belfast, Brussels and Berlin. And here she is incarnate in the magnificent Kristen Smyth and opening in Melbourne. That is so wonderful. And opening to the same hatred, expressed in the same words, as in Glasgow. Because hatred cannot change. But love… love is creative. Love changes everything… DIRECTOR’S NOTE | KITAN PETKOVSKI I can still recall the emotional mess that I was upon reading Jo Clifford’s The Gospel According to Jesus, Queen of Heaven.

Criss-crossing between our unnamed protagonist, the disappearance of flight MH370 and an unsolved mystery, Hungry Ghosts offers an unconventional take on the complexities of contemporary life. Hungry Ghosts was commissioned with the support of the Joan & Peter Clemenger Trust. Developed with the support of The Cybec Foundation through MTC’s Cybec Electric Playreading Series as part of the 2017 AsiaTOPA Festival, directed by Mark Zhuang Yi and read by Emina Ashman, Jing-Xuan Chan and Gareth Yuen.
