Thanks Sue - who knows?
She just went backstage at the Lion King
She's totally happy - she stood on the stage, 'Timon' gave her the tour - she saw Pumbar & Timon costumes & the lionesses & the hyenas & the wildebeests & the bone cave (?)
& it was just wonderful!
(Sometimes I wonder how old she is)

When we went to Stella Mann we went to a big shopping centre & did our entire Christmas shopping

It wasn't quite right for her - it's odd she's been very certain about each one after each audition/open day
We did 11 auditions last year - only 8 this year

I know what you mean, dd loved MADD, but we were at LSC yesterday and she didn't come out of there buzzing like she did at Nottingham but as I told her it is all good experience. I believe we have 5 or 6 more auditons after Stella Mann

Stella Mann is around 20 mins to half hour from Milton Keynes HUGE shopping centre, worth a visit.
Its funny how the kids have their preferences, my dd really didnt like Stella Mann and left before solos. They still offered her a place but she wouldn't go back for the funding audition

I'm sorry she did the open day not the Audition
Milton Keynes was the shopping centre (lucky we found our car after that)
Anyone at Bird on Wednesday?

That's the way DD felt - Robsmumma
She said after the Open day if that's how training is maybe I'd better to something else

Limited parking onsite at Stella Mann but loads of onstreet parking nearby.
I can't remember if there was a talk or not sorry.

Best of luck to all those auditioning at Stella Mann in Bedford.
No need to go to Milton Keynes while you wait for them to audition - Bedford is a large town and has a big shopping complex and plenty of parking in the town centre. There's a retail park on the outskirts too.
