WESTERN AUSTRALIAN ACADEMY OF PERFORMING ARTS (WAAPA)
MOUNT LAWLEY CAMPUS

OVERVIEW
The Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) is one of the world's leading performing arts academies, delivering the most comprehensive range of performing arts training in Australia. Our students develop their skills on-stage as an actor, dancer or musician, or behind the scenes in production, design or arts management.
WAAPA's Bachelor of Performing Arts is seeking experienced, inspirational lecturers to join the team at a pivotal moment for WAAPA at Edith Cowan University.
WAAPA will move into its brand-new world-class in Yagan Square in the Perth CBD in 2026 as part of an exciting expansion plan. ECU's CBD campus will bring together teaching and research in the areas of Creative Industries, Law, Business and Technology. This will be where innovative thinkers, adaptive learners and global citizens meet to develop into the leaders of tomorrow. This is unequivocally the most exciting time of all to join the university as it embarks on this further growth and transformational journey.
Collaborative, articulate and highly organised individuals are invited to apply for the role of Lecturer (Performing Arts) to contribute to our existing specialist and highly dedicated team of performing arts practitioners and educators.
THE ROLES
WAAPA is looking to appoint 2 part time lecturers in the Bachelor of Performing Arts.
We are seeking candidates with a specialisation in EITHER of these areas:
Position 1: Actor training and/or Vocal Training
Position 2: Devised, site specific or physical performance
Please note that both positions require a capacity to teach both studio-based practice and contextual theory and history related to that practice such as history of Australian Theatre, and the history and theory of theatre and performance.
WAAPA's Bachelor of Performing Arts is an incubator for future cultural leaders and artists who are passionate about telling stories and driving change in the global performing arts landscape. Students build the foundational skills necessary for a contemporary career in independent and commercial performance making, and the field of performance making as social practice.
As part of the Performance Making major, students start with intensive training in voice and movement studies, before advancing to original, self-devised and collaborative approaches to creating, producing, and presenting independent contemporary performance projects.
Students study the devising of text, character, story, and physical performance and apply these skills to a series of projects of group devised, site specific, directed, and puppetry performance. In a final independent project, students work in small pre-professional companies to conceive, research, rehearse and produce their own performance. Historical context units help students build up knowledge and understanding of the roots of contemporary performance practice. There is a particular focus on the twentieth century developments in practices, philosophies, and theories of performance, and how those developments inform the current landscape of experimental performance.
Students explore contemporary and progressive approaches to performance making as social practice, investigating the role of performance in social transformation through its intersections with power, politics, sex, gender, disability, and the institution. Students test this knowledge through the facilitation of a range of applied performance projects in partnership with industry and the community.
