wasn't ledger at waapa (western australias performing arts) before setting off for sydney? i'm sure of it.
I can't find any reference for it, and he would have had to have started there REALLY young since he left school at 16 to head to Sydney. WAAPA is basically a performing arts university, so while he might have done some short courses there, I don't think he was ever a "real" student. Still, it doesn't matter - he was a phenomenal, risk-taking performer, and I was just being a pedantic ^^^^ by pointing out that, as far as I can tell, he wasn't a "trained" actor (in the traditional sense).
