Meet the academics and professional staff who make up the WAAPA team




Our research staff and students dedicate their time to exploring the creative unknown in all areas of the arts. WAAPA has three distinct research centres that focus on a range of disciplines across the world of arts, education and performance.
“The opportunity to perform at WAAPA is a very regular occurrence from Performance Practicals all the way through to the vast number of shows you will take part in during your time there. This diversity of performance opportunity, both in class and on stage, without a doubt helps you confidently navigate your choices as an industry professional.”
“If you want to be a performer and practical musician then WAAPA is absolutely the best place to come to because you get so many different opportunities whether it be playing in a classical symphony orchestra, chamber music, operas or musicals, it has made us well-rounded musicians who have had pit experience, orchestral experience, and just experience working with other human beings.”
