THE PERFORMANCE STUDIO ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
The Studio Directors and Core Tutors present the Performance Studio Achievement Award
annually to a student that they feel has shown significant improvement throughout
the year. It is not based on talent, but rather an award that recognises someone,
who through dedication, perseverance and hard work, has grown - both as an individual
and as a performer. Dedication and hard work are important qualities for any performer
in today's competitive industry, and this award recognises these qualities.
This
award has been generously donated by Paul & Jennifer Leone.
