DD had audition on Friday at Urdang and was offered a place on Saturday - not hanging about there then ! Funding audition 8th March so fingers crossed. Millennium tomorrow, Performers, Bird and Arts Ed to go. Anticipating difficult decisions as she is so in love with Cambridge Bodyworks and had her...

Has anyone got any comments or tips on the Millennium audition? DD has this on the 22nd and as it's one she didn't do last year she's unsure as to what she should expect! Another thing, does any one know whether GSA dislike auditionees to do a song from the recall list for their preliminary audition...

Any other DCs auditioning for Millennium on the 22nd of Feb!?

There are lots of lists on line suggesting songs to sing or not to sing

Kaymac just out of curiously, which ALW and Disney songs did your DD sing for her auditions?

That's interesting to know, thanks Katymac! Other who have done the Millennium audition, when they stipulate a short song and monolouge, exactly how short do you think they mean? Was anyone cut off during their performances, or did your DC's take cut down versions for this particular audition?

Thanks all so much for your replies and suggestions, we've had alot of songs and shows to listen through over the weekend which has been really usefull! bop2thetop, DD LOVES The Life I Never Led from Sister act and has been singing it around the house all weekend - you may have saved the day so a ve...

I believe so jenniefer1972! We got confirmation of DDs audition today and were surprised to see they have a contemporary class as well as a ballet and jazz - almost 3 hours, definitely one of the longer dance auditions. They also mention pointe work which I haven't seen in an MT audition before, doe...

Did anyone else have trouble with the Millennium online application for the BA course? My DD's wont send and shes been trying a week!

Fab , thank you Oscar i'll let DD know your recommendations tomorrow as I don't think she's looked at any of those musicals! Really appreciate your help :D Her singing teacher is forever telling her to find a legit song but doesn't have any suggestions her self, so a big help! jasmine2 DD is going f...

Hi everyone, seeing as this is the hot spot for musical theatre knowledge, I was wondering if you could help out me and my DD. She's having trouble finding a suitable contemporary character song for her upcoming auditions, and with them being so soon she is getting a bit stressed out about it! She h...

Yes, London Studio Centre is a good suggestion too!

Both Bird and Urdang offer diploma courses which require less academic content than a typical degree course which may suit what you're looking for! Although both courses are titled 'Musical Theatre and dance' they are weighted a little more toward dance, and at Urdang they specifically offer a dance...

For applications to schools such as Mountview and Arts Ed who ask for a a personal statement of around 1000 words would people recommend making them specific to the certain school? For example 'I wish to attend this school as my specialism is in ballet and this dance program offers......' or would y...

does anyone know whether GSA prefers to hear a character or a legit song in the first round? DD is struggling to weigh up which song would be more suitable!

Think dd's have now finalised where they are applying and have had recent headshots taken. Dd1 is applying for RCS, LIPA, RWCMD, BOV, BSA,Mountview,CSSD, PPA. Dd2 is applying for Bird, Laines, Millenium, Urdang, Tiffany's, Performers, Bodyworks. Good luck to everyone applying and auditioning :) Wow...
