Creative Director | Belle Osmic
In 2025, Fame alumni, Belle Osmic and her team at Osmic Productions took ownership of the Fame Talent Agency. As a Fame student for 15 years, Fame teacher for 10 years and then going on to work closely with Fame Founder Mr Ken Kennett on the Kidding Around series and KK Productions shows she is very conscious of the effect being in Fame can have on our students. At the forefront of her direction and focus for our students, is an understanding of age-appropriate programming, skill-building and fostering a supportive community between our students and families.
It is this passion to help our next generation to have an inclusive, welcoming environment, to nurture their love of performing and help give them confidence in themselves that will take Fame into it’s next chapter. With the strength of amazing teachers who have a wealth of real world experience, we look forward to welcoming our students back in 2026 and meeting new students across our workshop series and to weekly training classes.
“2025 was our rebuilding time, 2026 we are ready for NEW adventures and focused classes for each of our student age groups to advance their training and preparation for a career in the arts”.

Junior Performance Team Teacher | Jason Miller
With over 20 years of diverse experience in the performing arts, Jason Miller has established himself as a multifaceted theatre professional dedicated to both performance and creative direction. His journey began as a student at Fame, where his passion for the stage took root under the guidance of the late Ken Kennett (OAM). After initially pursuing a Bachelor of Creative Writing, Jason redirected his focus to performance, earning a Bachelor of Music Theatre from CQUniversity.
Since then, Jason has honed his craft on stages both locally and abroad, performing in intimate productions and large-scale shows. However, his decade-long tenure at Universal Studios Singapore (USS) truly defined his career, where he embraced a variety of roles—mascot characters, show host, singer-dancer, and face character—while gaining a comprehensive understanding of production elements, from staging to lighting and sound design.
A highlight of Jason’s time at USS was serving as an Assistant Director, where he had the privilege of collaborating with talented creatives to bring immersive experiences to life. This role refined his abilities to manage rehearsals, coordinate technical aspects, and guide performers—all while fostering a dynamic and collaborative atmosphere.
Returning to Australia, Jason was thrilled to be cast as an onstage backup singer in Baz Luhrmann’s 2022 Elvis film—a career milestone that reinforced his versatility as a performer.
From 2020 to 2024, Jason oversaw content creation for Fame’s younger training schools, expertly guiding the organization through its online transition during the pandemic. His journey in the arts has been marked by dedication, adaptability, and a deep love for storytelling, and he remains committed to creating impactful work that resonates with audiences and inspires aspiring artists.
