Acting

Many of our graduates have achieved outstanding heights within many areas of stage, film, television, theatre and production. From writing and producing original works to working as casting directors and theatre managers, we believe these students have found their own slice of fame. Graduates who have received high levels of public recognition include performers such as: 
 

Firass Dirani (Underbelly: The Golden Mile, House Husbands, The Killer Elite, The Straits),
George Houvardas (Packed to the Rafters, East West 101),
Leeanna Walsman (Star Wars Attack of the Clones [as Jessica])
Valentino Del Toro (The Slap, Underbelly Files: Infiltration, Sea Patrol, Terra Nova)
Luke Joslin (Greenroom Award Winner for Avenue Q: The Musical)
Socratis Otto (Stockholm at The Sydney Theatre Company)
Fayssal Bazzi (Food at Belvoir St Theatre)
Matt Holmes (Sea Patrol, Castle, Blue Heelers)

If you are interested in studying Acting, you will need to complete an audition as part of your application.

Film and Theatre Production students undertake an interview not an audition.

Our performance courses are designed to produce graduates ready to enter the industry as professionals.  An integral part of this process is exposing students to casting and talent management agents, producers and directors throughout their time at AFTT. The high-caliber training and reputation of AFTT students ensures that many of the best agents attend our graduate productions, and this has led to students being offered representation and audition opportunities upon graduation.  We assist and guide our graduates in choosing the right agent.
