NYMT / BYMT 2021

961 replies

Starting a new thread for NYMT / BYMT hopefuls in 2021.

DD13 is auditioning for NYMT for the second time as stage performer and as musician. We just received an invite to the next round (online workshops).

She was gutted that Covid put a stop to her show (Imaginary) last year so we are keeping everything crossed that she gets another shot.

We've also booked a BYMT audition and she's already in the musician pool there so hopefully a show of some sort this year if we get some kind of normality back again...

Anyone else out there?

Heard back this morning call back for my DD for Billy the Kid... so excited 🤗

Still nothing here!!

Well done to those getting a yes now. We had a no on Friday. Out of the residential summer courses can anyone advise if NYMT or BYMT is better?

We’re Henrietta on 17th 2-4pm. Perhaps diff shows on diff days...?
Honestly can’t believe they’ll cast parts from this - without seeing the chdn... people will (sadly) lie about heights etc... i would guess they will perhaps decide on company then have a face to face workshop later....?? Have no real clue tho - completely new to nymt!!

Thanks @doesanybodyhaveamap. Nice to have that reassurance! Now it’s after 1pm. Where’s that gin??

janinlondon · 06/04/2021 12:49

Auditions are in two hour slots 10:30-6:30 both days of the weekend.

Thank-you. I havn't been checking (except for my daily check) as I had assumed musicians would not be yet but that has confirmed it for me.

update from NYMT HQ (I had to check that something hadn't gone wrong with DD's email....) is that some emails are still going out but everyone will have heard about stage auditions by the end of the day.

Haven't started contacting musicians yet, but will be doing so as soon as they can.

@Comefromaway that’s a really good idea! I was copied in on these thankfully but I’ll definitely set up an account we can both access in future

Alakazam8 · 06/04/2021 12:34

Still waiting ...

Yr10mom · 06/04/2021 12:13

we heard dd is in musician pool for bymt - now
awaiting show allocation

Belshels · 06/04/2021 12:12

I think a few are waiting for BYMT too, but I have seen a few offers for shows on FB. Anyone know what they are doing, trying to second guess. Assume they won't give 2nd shows to anyone already in from last year, not sure that would be right with so many waiting. xx

chaperonemum · 06/04/2021 12:10

@doesanybodyhaveamap we are waiting for BYMT (not hopeful) already had a no on Friday x

Katherine3 · 06/04/2021 12:09

Pinkstargazer12 · 06/04/2021 12:08

Any idea how many recalls they are doing? My DD is the 18th 2-4pm.

I thought the same. I’ve been driving DS mad asking him to check. I’m sure you’ll hear very soon[/quote]
My son is awful at emails so with his permission I've set up a special email account for auditions and uni/college open days/applications etc!

Mcmumager · 06/04/2021 11:54

My son is still in bed 😂😂😂

Triflefan · 06/04/2021 11:54

Great news @bicuitsneeded and everyone else who’s posted with recalls
