Starting a new thread as we filled up the old one!

DC 17 is in 6th season with NYMT. Also former BYMTer.

These annual threads have been a source of advice, emotional support and camaraderie for those of us with young performers enjoying everything that these awesome organisations bring.

Hi Team, the season is over and its been a rollercoaster for us! Hope everyone had a blast and I have LOVED following the progress of various shows and projects on social media.

By my calculations we have maybe six weeks of not stressing over the 2025 season before the 2026 season shennanigans start up again. I dont know how my nerves stand it to be honest..

Quick question as we wait for the new season to fully open for both companies (BYMT are booking 2026 auditions but NYMT are allowing us a bit of a breather...) Does anyone know much about the Young Company Panels in BYMT and whatever the equivalent is for NYMT. Any information and insight is gratefully recieved.

Well done parents and guardians on surviving another season in the life of a theatre kid/musican.

Edited

Sorry, took me a while to respond to this. At NYMT all the new work submissions go through Kate Golledge, and I know there is a panel of young readers who work with her
Maybe get your DD to send an email to enquiries FAO Kate Golledge if she's keen?

Heya sorry didn't see your reply! Thank you so much for this.

Just realised that the season isn't quite over yet as there are October Half Term camps/workshops still to come. Anyone taking part in these?

I had it in my head (incorrectly) that these had already taken place in the summer. I must keep up.

We had an email asking if DD would want to do one of the October non residential new musical workshops, but sadly we are going to be away. Bit sad really as she would have loved to take part x

Exciting news today!!!! Dd already signed up to audition. Are there more shows to be announced, do you think or just the 3 for 2026? Fab to see so many new musical workshops again 😊

Am delighted that Every Day is going to be the New Musical for 2026. My DS workshopped it in February and it sounded brilliant.
We also went to watch Platform last week and they were wonderful. Such a talented young cast! Hopefully they might announce the final show at the end of Platform this evening ? 🤞

Just come back from watching Platform. An incredibly talented bunch of young people. Thoroughly enjoyed it! And the shows for next year have been announced: West Side Story, Just So and Every Day!
