Across three events, Andrea will share her extensive industry knowledge with emerging and established artists, performers, directors, producers and community members interested in screen performance, creative training pathways and safe, ethical practice in the performing arts.

Braithe Ellis and Adria Cunningham both came through our JUTE Actors Studio Pathways before going on to study acting at QUT School of Creative Arts. Their journey is a real example of what can come from local training, encouragement and taking the next step.

For students who are curious about acting, performance, theatre-making or creative arts study, and for parents wanting to understand what these pathways can look like, JUTE and QUT are hosting a free Information Session.

It'll cover QUT’s creative arts study options, what the acting application process involves, and how to prepare for auditions. There will also be an audition preparation seminar to help students feel more confident and informed about what to expect.

You’ll have the chance to hear from QUT alumni, ask questions, and get a clearer sense of where creative arts study can lead. Make sure to register at https://events.humanitix.com/qut-information-session
