“Both courses that I studied I loved… The PA course was physically challenging, but I loved every minute of it! Being able to study and train in what you love alongside great friends who all want the same thing is awesome. All the teachers at Brent Street are amazing and inspire and challenge you one way or another! I have had a great experience with all my teachers; however I am especially grateful to Brent Street for igniting my love for Musical Theatre. My training at Brent Street has opened doors in the industry. I’ve danced at corporate events, featured in a music video, starred in a TVC, and performed for Opera Australia … I consider myself very lucky to have scored this job straight out of full time.” ⏤ Joel Houwen (2017 graduate), Diploma of Dance in Performing Arts & Cert IV Musical Theatre, Broadway Dance Center Scholarship Recipient
