Hagley Theatre Company's Open Day

A reminder that Hagley for a Day is coming up on Friday August 4th at the Open Stage Studios, 102 Champion Street. Regardless of whether students end up auditioning for the company or not, it is a really inspiring day of performing arts training and the Theatre Company would love to share their kaupapa with any school-leavers who might be keen on coming along. They are a third full at this stage and usually get to capacity, so sign up ASAP if interested. The form is here.

That way they leave AUT with the academic expertise and the industry proficiencies to thrive in a range of disciplines. You can find more information about our Workplace Experience at:
