NYMT / BYMT 2021

[doesanybodyhaveamap]

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?

@Alakazam8
I think you submitted a few days before us too. DS will be on tenterhooks for a while yet!

We received our workshop invitation email last Monday afternoon, so maybe today’s the day for those still waiting to hear 🤞🤞

Handy to know @DalekFan I wonder if that applies to the ones that are a 'no' too.

I’m expecting to hear either way...hope it is Monday afternoon!
Not so long for me to wait!
Dd is so chilled out about it doesn’t seem as if she’s worried at all. Best way though. It’s been so useful knowing that others are waiting too.

A friend of ours has just heard he has a workshop on Saturday, so the wheels are still turning at NYMT headquarters! Keep an eye out for emails...

@Biscuitsneeded do you know when they applied?

It’s a no here for nymt. It says they are offering a training camp in the summer so might do that if other things don’t materialise

@chaperonemum I think it was during Feb half term. There could be more emails tomorrow, for Sunday, though, so don't panic if you haven't heard yet.

@Newgirls so sorry to hear that. The summer residential courses are usually judged to be excellent too, and a good way to get on the NYMT radar if your DC is keen. They are small enough an organisation to remember people, and they do notice when someone keeps trying - especially if they are talented but just weren't right for any of the shows. I hope your DC is OK with the news.

She is thanks biscuits and I think a 15 year old girl is going to be facing tough competition so she was prepared for it. Might do the residential as you say it would put her on their radar and also learn things

Yep I would say 15 year old girl is probably the hardest bracket to be in! I'm glad she's OK. Definitely worth another go next year.

Sorry about that @Newgirls your DD sounds very level headed. Did she also audition for BYMT?

Sorry to hear your news @Newgirls. I hadn’t heard about the residential courses. They sound good and like others have said potentially get your dd known.

Aw sorry to hear this @Newgirls those mid-teen years are particularly tough. Do do the courses though - we've done some of the skills builder workshops this year and they definitely get to know the kids. I had some lovely comments about DD's progress after the last one she did.

Thanks gang! She has applied to bymt too. Tough age group but always worth a shot

Sorry to hear that newgirls. It is a tough age.

Ah sorry to hear that @Newgirls, definitely a tough age. Fingers crossed for good news from BYMT 😄

Just got an email inviting my DD to a workshop on Sunday. Hopefully anyone else still waiting to hear will do so very soon.

Great news @chaperonemum! Hope your DD enjoys it.

Fab news @chaperonemum. All the best to your DD for Sunday!

Sorry to hear that @newgirls I hope the BYMT audition goes week.

Congrats to your DD @chaperonemum!
Still nothing here 😬

*goes well!

Good news chaperonemum 🎉 and hope everyone hears soon x

Nothing here either as yet! @chaperonemum, when did you submit your video application if you don’t mind saying....
Noticed pp referring to certain age groups being more difficult to get places. Does anyone know what it’s like for the younger end?

Also @Comefromaway have you heard yet?
