There are numerous roles available for 'The Dark Night of Despair'. This is a paid role, although applicants must bare in mind that funds at the beginning of any project are a little scimp. It's a great opportunity to Network, Gain Work Experience and of course perform Something that could be brought to the evening, it could be an act, a song, dance, skit, Instrumentals, Acting and Theatre, SKILLS are necessary to be successful in these roles. If your highly egotistical please do not apply as it's very difficult to work with people who cannot/will not take direction. ENTERTAIN ME! Dark Night of Despair will run every single saturday night, and the more 'Acts' the better.
The best way to get PAID Performance work at ACOPA is to have a meeting with me, i'm in my North Melbourne office Monday, Wednesday and Friday between 12 and six, so book in an appointment. Second of all make sure you bring your photo ID and any relevant art related documentation you may possess. You must be able to take theatrical direction and the WILLINGNESS to loose yourself.
If all of this fits with your agenda then give a call or email. Auditions are unpaid and you need to show a certain amount of talent in your chosen genre in the Arts. It DOES NOT hurt the situation to harness the ability to take adequate direction aswell as Performers that DO think somewhat theatrically. The more skills you can bring to the meeting with myself, the better for you. The Australian Centre of Performing Arts is a great milestone to reach for ANYONE.
