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.

Really sorry to the disappointed DC. I'm really sure their turn will come.

A huge well done Antares' DD! Brilliant news!
DS has a part in Legend Trippers and is delighted.

Thank you Biscuits and congratulations to your son.

MariaMT · 28/02/2019 07:48

Brilliant news for your DC! I’m so pleased there’s some positive news to hear about. We will defiantly come to see the shows.
Enjoy their success and celebrate tonight x

Fantastic news biscuits!

Biscuitsneeded · 28/02/2019 09:35

Thanks EvilTwins, he feels very, very lucky.

Well done to the successes! As expected, a consolation offer, but not the one DD wanted. So that's us out for 2019! DD has just revealed that she has a show on during the AG rehearsal time anyway....so God knows how that would have worked (not!). No one terribly distressed though.

janinlondon · 28/02/2019 10:29

Antares well done to your DD - what part??

Antaresisastar · 28/02/2019 10:44

Jan, I'm glad your dd isn't too disappointed. Dd has been offered "Charity".

janinlondon · 28/02/2019 10:48

Great part! Well done that girl! (The rumour mill had it that AG was going to be Bugsied but I think that is not happening!!)

Biscuitsneeded · 28/02/2019 11:01

Sorry it wasn't what DD wanted Jan, but sounds as if she is pretty busy anyway! Next year!
Not sure about the Bugsying. I do know one 13 yr old who is more like 11 in height who has been offered a named role in AG so there must be some Bugsying going on!

janinlondon · 28/02/2019 11:59

Ah....thats interesting Biscuits - You are a font of knowledge! I think DD may be glad she chose the academic route at this point...who knows where she will be by next year??

janinlondon · 08/03/2019 11:02

Have YMTUK made offers yet?? Anyone?

Lonecatwithkitten · 08/03/2019 11:06

@janinlondon we have not heard from BYMT ( what used to be youth MT). They said they were casting on the 27/2 and 28/2 and that letters would follow in the next two weeks, but only to contact them if you had not heard by the end of March.
In that I over analyse everything I figured that realistically the first day a letter would arrived would be Wednesday.

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?!

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.

janinlondon · 08/03/2019 11:49

Yes, you are right - there is less urgency 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 12:44

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

minimits · 08/03/2019 17:43

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

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 17:47

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 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 19:17

Yes-I only have one email though...

Lonecatwithkitten · 11/03/2019 13:32

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

OP posts:
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.
