Waitlist for us too. 

I wonder why they can't give an actual date "results will be communicated on X date" 

Hello. Is the Yumiko still available and if so, could I please have a photo? Thank you. 

Congratulations to those who got a place, irrespective of which company. I think they are both lovely experiences. LCB is a charity and they do tremendous work to bring ballet into all communities around London and I think it is great for the touring companies to be part of that. There's something to learn from every opportunity and the silver lining is also that the rehearsals are not that intense. My daughter is having to give up a lot to be in the main company and it may well be for just a very small part.

My DD was also offered touring company and as you @RemiM although she knows how high the standard was and is def grateful for the place, she was also slightly disappointed. I do wonder if the majority of main company places went to those who did it last year, especially as @BallerinaMum13 mentioned they were still currently active with the gala this week. Either way, touring company is still a great achivement and I am sure will be a great opportunity.

 

In terms of waitlist, I suspect there will be very little movement on main company, but I wouldn't be surprised if slots open up for touring. It's quite a different offering to the main and I didn't realise there was a cost for this as well which may not suit all....

My daughter did not get a place at all last year (she made it to the finals) but she did get a main company place this year. Just giving this as an example to show that they did offer places who children who were not in either of the companies in the past. 

The results are out. The gala children were from the 2023 Snow White company. 

Last year it was about 10 (calendar) days after the final audition. LCB had a big fundraising event yesterday evening so I would guess that administratively they've also been busy with that (it is a small team). Good luck! 

Does anyone know if choosing the non-boarding option for RBS SI has an impact on admission? My daughter would only be 10 yrs old and we live in London so she can just be a day student. I see the option is offered. Just don't know if this might put her at a disadvantage (the cost is also lower).

Looking for 2 Tix at any of the remaining (November) performances. 

I was wondering if anyone might know what happened to the BRB children's auditions for the Nutcracker at Royal Albert Hall. They seem to have stopped circa 2020 or there is just no information available online? 

Could someone please tell me what email address the leotard email came from? I still haven't received anything.

Hi not sure if this is the right place to post but I’m hoping someone can help - I have just got the dates through for royal ballet online junior associates and noticed there are quite a few clashes with Ballet boost which my daughter has also been accepted to start in September. Which one would you go for and why? I’m just trying to weigh up what is best and am a complete newbie to this auditioning! She also got into Elmhurst young dancers but we don’t have a clash there so that one is ok. Thanks! 

My daughter opted to not do the online JA in Year 4. She prioritized an in person class at her normal dance school. She got into RBS as a Year 5 JA. One of her friends did the same. Some people advised us to do the online class to increase her chances for an eventual place but despite not doing that, she still got in. She also has a friend who did the online, but did not get a place subsequently. So this all varies. 

We got London JA 3 (32 week programme). Wondering if anyone else is in the same group. Would love to get to know some parents and children. 

My daughter will also be starting Yr 5 in London. Looking forward to meeting some of the other posters in Covent Garden in September. 

London results are out too. We have one happy girl!

Thanks. I'd like these. I will message you now. 

Looking for 2 tickets for any Friday, Saturday or Sunday production on the ENB Swan Lake at the London Coliseum. Fingers crossed! 

My daughter has just turned 9. She did not get a place. Well done who all those who got a place. It's going to be a great production! 

I think I might blink. Just giving myself a pep talk

We haven't heard yet ... It should be by the end of this week.

Wondering if anyone who has auditioned today knows when we find out the results ...

Hello. Any chance the wear moi ones are still available? The Pacific and the french blue?

I was also surprised by how quickly the results were shared. My daughter was also called back for the final audition but I think the competition will be intense. She is in the 9 year old group. Good luck to everyone! 

Results came out very quickly, fyi. Auditioned on Sunday, results today (Thursday).
