Re: Auditioning for SEPT 2018

DS is still waiting to hear from Arts Ed on how he did at his audition on Monday. Their audition policy states that they do intend to notify auditionees within the week, but usually aim for 3 days. My DS is now reading all sorts into this. Has anyone been through the process before and confirm how ...

Re: BA / Foundation MT courses Sept 18

I had a look at Trinity audition guidance page earlier and it says to prepare a dance lasting no longer than 2 mins so I'm surprised they didn't ask to see it. Seems a shame to waste auditionees' time Thankyou x I know! I spent a fortune on that 2 minute solo. They only asked two girls, one who had...

Re: BA / Foundation MT courses Sept 18

Reading all the posts on this thread and the Auditioning for 2018 thread is very emotional. Takes me back to two years ago. I genuinely feel for everyone. You want so much for your DC but are powerless to get them what they want. All you can do is support them and make sure they stay realistic and ...

Just to add DD said dance workshop was fine. They didn't ask to see her dance x Sounds to me like the singing is the key x

Re: BA / Foundation MT courses Sept 18

We have the same Hammond audition date I think x It is very hard to know what's right or not x I think you just have to let them decide on where they feel right x So far we have had auditions at Urdang( rejection and expected as way out of her dance skills) GSA(rejection but not too worried as she ...

Re: BA / Foundation MT courses Sept 18

Not sure if any use to those already auditioning but might be helpful for any future auditions ,we entered drama festivals to test out monologues and audition songs to get feedback. DD belongs to a drama club so entered with them but you can do it independently. It's great advice x DD tried out mon...

Re: BA / Foundation MT courses Sept 18

Yes I know exactly what you mean. I am struggling with the sheer enormity of the cost of everything (as a single parent) just for her to be able to do the auditions. Audition fees- not a problem as they were expected. Private lessons for Drama and Singing to prepare songs and monologues (on top of ...
