For years, JMC Academy’s Music Theatre course has been known for its industry alignment and ability to shape disciplined, dynamic performers across Melbourne’s creative heart.

This February, we’re bringing that same standard of training to a new home: Brisbane.

If you’re a Queensland-based triple-threat who’s ready for professional Music Theatre training, you don’t need to wait a year.
You don’t need to move interstate.
You don’t need to take a “gap year” from your dream.

Brisbane now has its own home for Music Theatre at JMC Academy.

Training That Meets You at a Professional Level

JMC’s Music Theatre program is built for performers who don’t wait for permission to begin. The artists who arrive with curiosity, discipline and drive… and want a training environment that matches that energy.

This is conservatoire-style intensity delivered with JMC’s signature support, structure and creative oversight. The traits of an institution that understands how the modern Music Theatre industry works.

A JMC Music Theatre degree includes an industry-topping:

• 36 hours of private vocal coaching — an unmatched foundation for vocal health and versatility
• 108 hours of ensemble singing, shaping musicianship and stamina
• 120–140 hours of rehearsal and performance time, building real stage-readiness
• A professional weekly schedule modelled on industry expectations
• Mentorship from active performers, directors, choreographers and vocal specialists
• A curriculum refined over years of successful training in Melbourne

Every element of this course is designed to build resilience, craft and professional readiness: the markers of a contemporary theatre gun.

Why Launch in Brisbane? Because the Talent Is Already Here

JMC is no stranger to Brisbane’s thriving creative community. We know it’s rich, ambitious, rapidly evolving and ready for the spotlight. What Brisbane hasn’t had, until now, is a specially-tailored Music Theatre training environment that speaks directly to that ambition.

The arrival of JMC’s Music Theatre degree fills that space with intention:
We’re building a place where emerging performers can refine their technique, expand their creative vocabulary and build a body of work in a city that is a significant force in the arts.

This is not a response to the existing landscape.
It’s our progression of it: our efforts to place Brisbane firmly on the national training map.

A Proven Program, Tailored for a New Creative Hub

JMC’s Melbourne Music Theatre cohort has already built a strong reputation for professionalism, adaptability and stamina. Graduates step into the industry with training that feels lived-in, not theoretical.

Brisbane’s offering extends this success, providing the same depth of craft and coaching, delivered with local insight and a clear understanding of what today’s performers need to thrive.

This is a program with history, now shaping the artistic future in a new city.

Start Your Training With Intent

Every performer has a moment when they’re ready to move from dreaming about a career to preparing for one. For many, that moment comes before the world realises they’re ready. The answer now is not to wait, but to begin.

With JMC Brisbane’s Music Theatre course launching this February, there is now a place for emerging singers, dancers and actors to step forward with confidence. Right here, right now.

So, viva Brisvegas! The next chapter of your training starts here.
