Jonathan Antoine

“Music is more than everything, it’s a way to be part of something bigger. When I sing, I am purely myself, but I can also be anyone in all of history. It’s a toolbox, filled with ways to repair human connections.” -Jonathan Antoine, 28 year old tenor from the UK. From Puccini to Diane Warren and more, Jonathan sings a diverse repertoire, bringing many musical tastes together, and his audience appreciates it all. Most people initially heard of Jonathan when he exploded onto the worldwide stage following his performance on Britains Got Talent in 2012. That audition is now part of television history, and Jonathan became an instant National and International singing sensation! Jonathan’s first solo album achieved the number one position in the U.K. classical chart which made him, at 19, the youngest tenor to ever have a number-one album! His second solo album ‘Believe’ performed similarly, topping the Classical chart. Jonathan has since gone on to sing around the world, produced an album with accompanying concert filmed as a PBS special for the North American market, followed by 2 Christmas albums, ‘Going The Distance’, ‘Christmas Land’, and ‘ChristmasLand Platinum’ respectively - and most recently has recorded an album cataloguing a selection of Diane Warren’s award-winning songs at her request. The level of expertise and musicianship across Jonathan’s body of work is second to none and testament to the person and musician that Jonathan is, and his commitment to creating quality art and experiences. Jonathan’s eclectic musical sensibilities have taken him far outside of his expected genre, and as such he has been an avid guitarist for the last decade. Beyond music Jonathan is a humanitarian and cares deeply about many causes. Mental health, education and homelessness being amongst them. He has a deep interest in philosophy and loves to express himself through the written word, with multiple novels on the go at any given moment. Want to know more?

The Janice Breen Performance Studio is regarded as one of Sydney's best training centres for young dancers, singers and performers. Past students from JBPS have gone on to become outstanding performers in TV, film, advertising, commercial dance and major musical theatre productions. Established by one of Sydney's most experienced entertainment professionals, Janice Breen OAM (1939-2017), the Janice Breen Performance Studio first opened its doors in Hillsdale in 1964 before moving to Coogee where the studio continued to operate for more than 40 years. An accomplished performer herself, Janice’s ​ teaching philosophy was based on energy, fun, encouragement, hard work ... and most importantly the joy of just being a kid! Janice was a firm believer that the confidence and discipline her students gained from performing would benefit them throughout their lives and she was always incredibly proud of the level of success her students attained in their chosen field, whether that be entertainment or otherwise. Sadly, our beloved Miss Jan passed away in 2017 but her incredible legacy continues. Now permanently based in Alexandria, the Janice Breen Performance Studio offers classes in jazz, tap, RAD classical ballet, lyrical, hip hop, singing and acrobatics from tiny tots to professional levels, delivered by a teaching staff who are both tertiary and professionally qualified. The Janice Breen Performance Studio caters for a range of levels of dedication and ability. Whether you plan on making a career out of dance or want to keep fit and make life-long friends, we have a class for you!
