Learning from a working artist: Kat Hoyos
We are proud to welcome Sydney-based performing artist Kat Hoyos as WPPA's Artistic Ambassador. Kat is an actress, singer, dancer, improviser, director, choreographer, writer, speaker, coach and educator — and a proud member of the MEAA. She graduated with a Bachelor of Creative Arts (Performance: Theatre and Music) from the University of Wollongong and holds a Cert IV from Brent St School of Performing Arts, with further training at The Groundlings in Los Angeles, Improv Theatre Sydney and with leading coaches across Australia and the USA.
Workshops
Kat will run workshops throughout the year, sharing real industry skills in acting, singing, improvisation and stagecraft with both companies.
Mentoring
Kat will mentor young performers one-on-one and in small groups, helping each person find confidence, voice and their own creative voice.
Production feedback
Kat will watch our productions and give honest, encouraging feedback to help every performer and the whole company grow.
First visit
Kat's first visit is planned for Week 6, Term 1.
A chance for every young performer at WPPA to learn directly from a working stage and screen artist — and to be inspired by what a career in the performing arts can look like.
