NYMT/BYMT 2023 thread

[Comefromaway]

Ok, I know we technically haven't finished 2022 yet as there is still the Christmas Concert for some (my ds is not taking part due to his conservatoire concert) but NYMT have released details of their 2023 season & auditions here

Good luck everyone whose dc are applying this year

Congrats to all joining Concert as musician 🥳 just to let you know I am organising cast hoodies and the info is on the Facebook group page!! Do get in touch!

Also my DD is organising hoodies for Armchair ❤️

I don’t think we’ve had that Facebook group link yet could you do me?

DM me - although I think I know who you are from Armchair/last year

@Comefromaway if you just search for NYMT in Concert 2023 the group is visible. I can’t add you as not admin

Found it. I’ve messaged Ds to ask him if he’s seen about hoodies for both shows.

He will probably want one but only if I pay!

@Comefromaway I've just ordered both 😂

im paying £5k per year towards his rent and his course fees but he has just had his student loan in and promptly ordered a keytar so he can pay!

To be fair he’s been supplementing his loan by playing in the pit for amateur companies and he paid all his travel & food for the Easter rehearsal week.

Wow feels like forever since I checked in here - sounds like everyone had a great Easter :) (Although even that seems ages ago now)

Anyone on the BYMT reserve had any news? @wonderfullife123 @NotEvenSlightlyReasonable

@MxPickles we had an email today saying still thinking about it, will let you know, tell us if your plans have changed, so I've told them she's a no. It would have been nice to know in the end whether she'd have been offered anything, but would have been a pain in the arse if we'd pulled out at this point after an offer, so it didn't seem fair not to tell them.

DD has totally moved on, she's currently in 3 shows and a choir performance and has a music exam and still has a summer project to look forward to so we're all good. Will plan next year after we see how the residential goes this summer.

How about you?

We have flexible plans over the summer so could still to BYMT if asked - just surprised to hear from them as I thought the list had closed.

Had the same email @MxPickles currently still potentially have flexibility but would need to know quite soon. I can't quite understand how there can still be possibilities at this point. Surely everyone who has committed already will have paid a sizeable chunk so I would have thought drop outs would be very rare?

@MxPickles and @wonderfullife123 I hope you hear soon and with offers!

Thank you @NotEvenSlightlyReasonable I'm not hopeful tbh at this point but what will be will be. Great to hear that your DD has lots of fun plans ahead.

Thank you and I hope your DC has a lovely summer on the course they have signed up for :)

Well, having just about given up my DD1 just got offered a reserve place on a BYMT show!

Congrats to your DD @wonderfullife123 ! Which show?

@YouBetYourBippy thank you! It's for Naughty Carriage on the Orphan Train

Congrats to her!

Brilliant! Great news. Hope she enjoys it x

Thank you @Comefromaway @YouBetYourBippy she's so excited.

@wonderfullife123 yay! I hope she has a brilliant time

That's great news. Congratulations to your DD and well done for being so flexible and patient!

Well done to your DD @wonderfullife123!

Yay, fabulous news, I bet she's buzzing!

Thank you @Biscuitsneeded @yodaforpresident @allhailthebrain @NotEvenSlightlyReasonable She is totally buzzing - it did feel like a long old wait so really happy for her.
