Students who are unable to attend the above audition dates may request a private audition or audition by DVD. Students auditioning by DVD may still be required to attend the Academy to be assessed in person before final selection. Please email auditions@tanyapearsonacademy.com.au if you are unable to attend the above audition dates.

Students are assessed by at least two TPA Full Time Faculty members, including Lucinda Dunn, Artistic Director.

Students are assessed on a number of criteria including physicality, artistry, musicality, turnout and use of it, coordination, dynamics, versatility and receptiveness. We are not looking for finished products and a student’s potential and suitability for our program (and schools and companies that we feed into) is a major factor in our selections.
