PAATA2003 ACTING AND THEATRE PRACTICE 3
"This course is divided into two strands: Acting: This intermediate course is designed to increase the actor¿s ability to adapt the performing self to the demands of text in a heightened style, examples being drawn from a wide variety of texts: Shakespeare, Greek as well as other classic and contemporary material. Students will be asked to explore these texts with a mind to formulating practical work methods and rehearsal strategies that accommodate performance demands. The Course has been designed to augment work being undertaken in the Theatre Practice strand of the Course. The format for much of the work will centre on a detailed study of plays and scene rehearsal. Class work will periodically focus on presentation of these scenes, both within the class and for audiences beyond it. Theatre Practice: Theatre Practice is the component of the Course where students explore, in a practice-based way, how basic rehearsal processes evolve into performance. Specifically, this Course asks students to consider integrating these core processes into the rehearsal and performance of non-naturalistic material. This project will culminate in small studio-based performance. It is expected that students integrate knowledge, skills and values gained in other skills classes into these performances where and as required. "
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: $1,552
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,329
* 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.
