AboutNATIONAL ACADEMY OF PERFORMING ARTS

The National Academy of Performing Arts (N.A.P.A.) was established in 2006 in response to the growing need for a production-based training institute on the Gold Coast of Australia. Since then it has become one of the largest and most prestigious performing arts academies, offering elite training in Music Theatre, Stage Acting,

Acrobatics, Jazz, Tap, Hip Hop, Lyrical and RAD Ballet.

NAPA began in 2006 with the vision of “Artistically shaping future performers to act out their dreams.”

This has been achieved through our outstanding training in the performing arts that meet professional standards for youth between the ages of 3 and 18.

NAPA is different from other academies in that we cater for all of the arts’ disciplines and we are a production based company.

Our students not only can train in all of the performing arts but they also have many opportunities to be part of full scale musicals, plays, competitions, concerts and community events.

It ’s time to make a move to our own premises which will allow NAPA to reach its full potential and allow our students to shine.
