CPPSA1002 Foundation Skills Acting Studio 2
This course builds on the foundation of practice developed in Studio 1. It is divided into two strands: Acting and Music Theatre/Theatre Practice. Acting: Building on foundational skills begun in Semester 1, this course will focus on translating and applying these skills to the written text. Students will learn a variety of strategies for approaching written texts, beginning with a fundamental grounding in text analysis: how a text may be examined and mined for relevant information; how this information can be ordered and translated into rehearsal strategies, and how it may be used in developing performance. Theatre Practice: Music Theatre/Theatre Practice is the component of the course where students explore, in a practice-based way, how acting processes evolve into performance. Students will participate in performance projects that culminate in small studio-based showings of work.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
