Below are just a few examples of great feedback about our workshops and preparation packages from parents, industry professionals and the media:
“Queenie is truly INSPIRATIONAL! Thanks to her audition workshop & follow-up audition preparation, our daughter was cast as Marta in The Sound of Music (Sydney)… I thoroughly enjoyed reading through all of the post-workshop preparation notes you sent to all of the parents. I took a lot away from this & applied your philosophies throughout the lead-up to the audition.”

“We couldn't have been more impressed with the workshop our two girls participated in during the preparation for auditions. Not only was the workshop a really fun and relaxed day, it ensured the girls were fully prepared for what to expect during the audition. That coupled with the incredibly helpful information provided post workshop ensured they were as ready as they could be. We are thrilled that our youngest child Zoe was ultimately cast in the Adelaide production and we are sure this workshop definitely played a part in that success”
