When Mojean Aria was asked to teach a week-long acting workshop for the Australian Institute of Performing Arts (Aipa), he agreed on one condition: they offer a free place to an aspiring young actor of Middle Eastern or North African (Mena) background.
As such, a scholarship has been established for one student (aged 12-18) from the Mena community to cover all meals, accommodation and classes during Aria’s six day, five-night residential masterclass next month.
Throughout the week, students will work with Aria – who stars with Jason Momoa in AppleTV’s See and will next be seen with Hugh Jackman in Lisa Joy’s Reminiscence – covering topics such as scene work and building a character. Industry professionals from the US will also Zoom in to give advice, guidance and feedback.
