The Peter Pan boys were great! What a talented bunch

Happy memories

Our girls is a great musical with a strong true story. I’m sure the writers could take that places.

It was such a great night and lovely to see them up on stage. Sad back at our hotel last night as the realisation hit that he won’t perform with all his Peter Pan gang again. He would so love to do it all over again! Such a great cast and great friendships made- really the best experience for them all.

I really liked the our girls show- looked great.

I think it suited my dd Dalek - it was fun to see the other shows and see why people were chosen for them. Peter Pan looked joyous and also loved babies - what a brilliant idea for a musical - could see that in every secondary school!

@Newgirls there was an amazing variety of shows wasn’t there? One of my DDs good friends was in Our Girls, Our Game and she was there last night too. Looked like a great show to be a part of.

Newgirls · 19/12/2021 11:17

We were there too! Loved it all. What a great venue and so well organised. Our football girl had a great time. Glad they got to do it, especially as so many school things moved online. What a variety of shows!

@Lonecatwithkitten @Mcmumager It was a wonderful evening and I have to admit that I got quite emotional during the carols. DD had the best day reconnecting with all the PP gang, they all get on so well. She just felt sad that it was their last time performing together - but what a time they’ve had. Memories to last a lifetime.

Lonecatwithkitten · 19/12/2021 07:31

@DalekFan and @Mcmumager the cast of Peter did themselves proud last night. All the shows did amazing job.

Hope she has a fun time.

DalekFan · 18/12/2021 11:47

Hi @Biscuitsneeded. Yes the BYMT show is still on, DD safely delivered to Oxford Street for 9am. Bit early for a Saturday morning. 🤪

Aghhh. Sorry to hear that. I hope BYMT go ahead

Thanks for heads up on the auditions

Biscuitsneeded · 14/12/2021 19:50

Auditions live tomorrow according to DS who's seen something on Instagram.

Mcmumager · 14/12/2021 19:44

The NYMT dates and venues for auditions are on the website but don’t think they are ready for booking yet.

Mcmumager · 14/12/2021 19:25

That is so sad. You can understand it but it’s so rubbish we are all in this situation again facing Christmas.

We’ve had some music through from BYMT today so I guess still going ahead but there might be some difficult decisions ahead eh?

I hope your son isn’t feeling too bad and you are all well for Xmas.

Biscuitsneeded · 14/12/2021 19:04

Well, sadly the NYMT Christmas concert is cancelled. Irrelevant for DS who actually has Covid now anyway, but so sad for everyone, especially the NYMT team who will have worked hard to prepare. I understand why though. It might have been quite irresponsible to press on and risk a super spreader event right when people might be seeing elderly relatives. However, they did say auditions will open in the next few days for 2022. God knows what format they will take - I think we're in for a rocky few months.

Yr10mom · 12/12/2021 19:42

oh thanks for musicians? - no one we know has that?

nearlyhomealone · 12/12/2021 18:53

@yr10mum there was an email from Kylie on the 9th with timings and links to a Dropbox with songs

Yr10mom · 12/12/2021 18:46

anyone got news update on timings next Sunday from NYMT and any music parts sent out yet?

Biscuitsneeded · 12/12/2021 17:04

You could always record a song anyway over the Xmas hols so it's ready to send if needed! I have a feeling they are holding off as long as possible on any decisions to see what happens. Feels like Covid has sadly ramped up a gear almost overnight!

Slightly climbing the walls here, having to factor in child being away at boarding school! She will either need help with prepping an audition recording or I'm going to have to go get her for a weekend dash somewhere in January. Need to know!!!!

Yes that makes sense biscuits

Biscuitsneeded · 11/12/2021 15:20

I am really hoping there will be some NYMT news soon! Not least because DS's early Spring looks manic, and trying to ringfence a couple of weekend dates as potential NYMT audition dates without knowing where and when they will be happening is tricky! Fingers crossed for news soon. I imagine they are leaving it as late as possible to see what happens with Covid and rules/regulations, as the last thing they want is to organise a whole load of in person auditions and book travel and venues etc and then find they can't happen. Fingers crossed for a bit of clarity soon.

Newgirls · 09/12/2021 16:12

We haven’t booked any auditions yet but have got tic for the BYMT show. Excited!

Mcmumager · 09/12/2021 11:10

Just hoping the Christmas shows get to go ahead for NYMT and BYMT next week in light of all the changes.

Still no dates for NYMT on their website. Did anyone audition for BYMT online? My ds is booked in for Jan.
