Re: Colleges and their different focuses

This is not a fool proof plan by any means, but it does give you a feel for the success of students. Make a list of say 10 west end or touring shows that your DC would be interested in doing. Check out their bio’s on cast lists and see where they trained (usually on websites nowadays). Also keep the...

Re: Auditioning for 2022 entry

Hoping all new starters are settling into their courses. My DS absolutely LOVES GSA. Couldn’t be happier. Early days but signs are incredibly positive.

Re: The end or the start - who knows

Just to update you. Yesterday dd was offered a panto tour (small scale venues) for 6 weeks over November/December.

Re: Opportunities while in College - Favouritism

What a terrible shame. I am actually quite shocked this should have happened. I just despair at some peoples behaviour.

Re: Amount of jazz dance at 6th form college

I would say that: the commercial dance, the modern and commercial jazz all classify as ‘jazz’ and would all be beneficial in an audition scenario. Quantity is not really the issue, it’s more the quality of those lessons that counts.

She turned 18 four days later so it’s been a fantastic celebration. Good luck to everyone starting over the next couple of weeks How wonderful! Congratulatio...

Re: MTA confirms it's closing

This makes me really sad to hear this. Looked like a fabulous place to train. It sounds, from the Stage article. that it must have been a very frustrating and upsetting last few months. I hope all student attached to the school can find suitable training.
