TILT 2026

Meet the Next Wave of Makers

Devised and performed by 3rd Year BPA Performance Making students

Get ready to be inspired, provoked and entertained as WAAPA’s graduating performance makers hit the stage at full tilt, showcasing their creative talents over two weeks in September. This is theatre at its most eclectic, with powerful performances and inventive stagecraft underpinning highly original works that explore the very fringes of theatre making.

“A great opportunity not just to get a first glimpse at the talent we’ll be seeing in future years but also the issues that preoccupy them and compel them to speak out.” – Seesaw Magazine
