Hi Rhymie! Absolutely brilliant! Well done to your son for achieving a place at BOV 
It’s so hard! That was the last one on the list for my son & he didn’t even audition in the end as we had run out of money by then! But tbh don’t think he would’ve even been successful as it’s so hard! Your son has done brilliantly how’s he getting on? Bet he’s enjoying it! The courses are so full on 3rd in particular, yes mine is currently rehearsing showcase, also rehearsing for final London season plays, also rehearsing for the Carlton Hobbs awards! Showreel, voice reel & spotlight were all completed before Christmas. He’s already had meetings with some top agents but has decided not to sign with any just yet until after showcase. On top of that he’s already had and having auditions & recalls for productions including West End. Most of the sch’s have what they call an industry liaison manager who organises auditions for 3rd years & contacts with agents. It’s all quite exciting but very very full on at the mo!
