Behind the Curtain: A Glimpse into the Performing Arts Industry 

Fifty students recently attended Behind the Curtain, an inspiring event that offered a unique insight into the many career pathways within the performing arts.

The afternoon featured a panel discussion and Q&A sessions with industry professionals, including renowned casting director Lisa Campbell and a host of talented Pymble alumni. Students heard from Ally Morgan (actor and script writer), Safia Arain (actor), Genevieve Graham (costume designer), Catherine D’Souza (script writer and film production), and Freya Finocchiaro (arts management), who generously shared their experiences and advice. Creative conversation over some delicious lunch provided a relaxed setting for students to engage directly with the guests, gaining valuable insights into the diverse world of theatre and production. We look forward to offering further opportunities for students to explore their passion for the performing arts and connect with leaders in the field.
