MrsMoo2 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Well, over here we have been nursing our bruises after DS's no but he's not giving up! He said he's had two no's now in as many months and he's going to his Elmhurst audition Saturday so he can get the hat trick! ?? Have to keep reminding him that he has only been doing it for 18 months and isn't 10 till August so still time to improve and if you don't try, well you won't get eh?? Well done to all the yes's and sending hugs for the no's. S xx 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we are Elmhurst'ing on Saturday at The Dancehouse Theatre in Manchester. DS is obviously keen on the idea of this being as it will be his last chance at associates till year 6, plus he likes that it's central manchester. (We live in a field up a mountain in Wales!!??) Talked last night about what he will do if he gets another no, and have agreed to fund extra classes with his current school. DS seems happy with this but then try again for associates next year. Didn't even get into the vocational school conversation! Financially that would be a nightmare...? xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think dd was awarded something like 70% travel allowance for her and one parent. This was Advanced Associates so classes only held at Covent Garden.

sunrise81 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I hope London is soon! My daughter was supposed to audition in Leeds but had chickenpox. They kindly let us audition in London (meaning we had a nice day out!!!). I know Leeds have already been sent out so guessing hers will be with the London set. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
