Just booked DD(14)'s audition, her first year. Very nervous for her and there are three months to go.

She has done well as the big fish in a small pond and had really good NODA reports, comments on Lamda exams and in local competitions. Now it is time for her to put herself out there in the big wide world.
We know the odds are against her and we talk about the experience being good.

@lonecatwithkitten how did your DD like Read? Is she looking to audition for one of their courses?

crackalackin · 08/04/2019 12:41

Aha! Thank you 😃 Will keep an eye out for emails around then!

Deadline for transfer acceptances is 15 April Crackalackin. So after that the reserve list may open up?

Biscuitsneeded · 06/04/2019 07:26

Really pleased DD got a transfer Jan. Hope she has a great time. DS is off to NYMT this morning. Full of cold but very excited. Hope all have an amazing season.

crackalackin · 06/04/2019 06:07

Well done to everyone who got a place! Does anyone know how the reserve list works and when we are likely to hear about places offered from it?

Lonecatwithkitten · 03/04/2019 17:59

I am so pleased she got a transfer. Hope Dickens Girls goes well one of my DD's singing teachers other pupils got that show.

Just popping back in to update. As ever, the wonderful Hannah at YMT (or BritYMT as they now seem to be) solved all our problems and put DD on the transfer list. DD is now placed on Dickens Girls, and is thrilled. And in case anyone in future years is searching, YMT are very accommodating about the transfer list.

Glad to see the good news from BYMT for the DC on here - and Jan I hope something works out for your DD! I'm sure it will...

Lonecatwithkitten · 20/03/2019 16:47

@janinlondon that's difficult that the dates don't work hopefully she will get a transfer.
Out of interest what was she offered if you don't mind me asking.

Hello all - sorry, I have been away on hols with my Mum for a bit. Big congrats to the YMT offer holders! DD has an offer but the dates are impossible so she has asked to be put on the transfer list......so still we wait...

Lonecatwithkitten · 15/03/2019 18:48

DD's full offer arrived tonight she has Wanderlust in Huddersfield, it will be devised by the cast and the production team in the run up to performances.

Big congrats to the DC getting good news from YMT! (Not adding the B on political grounds as I think it excludes N.I. but it's still fab news Grin).

minimits · 11/03/2019 15:39

Yay Lonecat! Great news! Looking forward to hearing what show she has!

Lonecatwithkitten · 11/03/2019 15:14

Literally just had an email. DD is in a show, just they haven't finalised the details we should know beginning of next week.

Lonecatwithkitten · 11/03/2019 13:32

@janinlondon have you heard yet, we have heard nothing.

OP posts:
minimits · 08/03/2019 19:17

Yes-I only have one email though...

Lonecatwithkitten · 08/03/2019 18:29

@minimits did it come to your email that you booked the audition with? Super anxious for her now. I suspect if she is not in Fight like a girl it will be after weekend.

OP posts:
minimits · 08/03/2019 17:47

They also do it show by show-he only knows people that have got Fight so far. Really hope you get good news Lonecat!

Lonecatwithkitten · 08/03/2019 17:44

@minimits well done her. Still waiting her. We are a W surname so are always late for this kind of thing.

OP posts:
minimits · 08/03/2019 17:43

Emails seem to have started-DS got fight like a girl-happy boy! Good luck everyone waiting x

janinlondon · 08/03/2019 12:44

Oooh Thanks Minimits - at least we know we havent missed an email i guess!

minimits · 08/03/2019 12:11

Hi-message from BYMT-‘you should hear back by end of week’. Only now I’m not sure if that means this or next week! 😝

janinlondon · 08/03/2019 11:49

Yes, you are right - there is less urgency I guess.

Lonecatwithkitten · 08/03/2019 11:18

@janinlondon as they have no Easter rehearsals I guess at the latest we will still hear 4 months before the first rehearsal.

OP posts:
janinlondon · 08/03/2019 11:15

Lonecat - I like your system. I was working on what happened in previous years, and know we had heard by now......They are leaving it a bit late?!
