NYMT/BYMT 2025 (Act Two)

[doesanybodyhaveamap]

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.

😁

@MxPickles I know! Considering temporarily outing myself so you can find me on facebook!

ooof! I feel special! I actually considered the same but I dont know how to delete posts on MN. In fact, I have no idea how to drive it at all ( I only come here for this thread😂)

TBF I feel that I likely know many of the parents or DC on here. Its a bit like the Masked Singer - Theatre Parent Edition!

If you know operasingerkath she knows my true identity!

(Alternatively tag me in a post with your FB name then delete it quickly. I wont tell. promise)

Well done to @TheOliveSwan 's DC

Any news on Musician places yet? Keeping everything crossed for all the Muso DC x

Think I found you. Northern lights? Im a Beagle :D

@MxPickles that's me!

Has anyone's DC done both NYMT and BYMT in the same year? DD has been offered the opportunity. It IS a lot of money, which we could potentially find ......

I just wonder if she will get the same opportunity next year ....

No, ds did two NYMT shows one year (unplanned as a musician dropped out) and it was a lot in terms of time. It meant we didn't get a family holiday that year.

We did. At least by doing then back to back it was easy for DC to get a feel for which they felt was their tribe.

@doesanybodyhaveamap and what was their conclusion, if you don't mind me asking

@Truetoself well, this is (hopefully) season 6 with NYMT!

@doesanybodyhaveamap thanks. It is difficult to say no to DD as MT is her absolute passion but she will get good experience being a partnof Fame and hopefully will get further opportunities in the future.

Bit of lovely news here. DC has been offered Fame! Have our musicians heard back yet? X

Nothing here yet.... when was the email??

And congratulations!!!! 🥳

This is not for musicians. For performers.

Sorry. I wasn't clear in my excitement......!

If you can find the money and the dates don't clash, I'd say it's a pretty rare chance to do both because you actually can, and then see what you think. They're really quite different so it's not necessarily a case of one being better then the other. Your DD will then be able to decide for herself if she has a strong preference for any future years or whether in fact it makes sense to keep on auditioning for both and seeing what outcomes you get each time.

I'm absolutely delighted for your DC. Proof that sticking with it through the knockbacks is worth it. Huge well done!

Thank you 🥰

@Mumster40 A huge congratulations to your DC. What an amazing opportunity
at this stage . They must be delighted to put it mildly!

Well done to your DC @Mumster40, they must be so excited!

Congratulations to those receiving offers. My DC got a no this time but offer of a non-residential course in Manchester in October.

Honestly, she's not too disappointed as has quite a busy summer already. I think she'll apply again another year.

@doesanybodyhaveamap have you heard?
