Several emails later (I donโt think they believed that she was actually moving to London, just that she preferred that option!) they said that the London auditions were full, so it was Bradford or nothing.

MAK Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Good luck to everyone auditioning. Too late for yesterday but I remember listening to a talk from two Central students who were selected to dance on The Red Shoes tour and they advised really going for it in the audition, showing acting and performance ability and not holding anything back.ย Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancermum2003 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Dd at audition now. I would echo Balletbean and say that most of the auditionees are older (17-18). Itโs a fabulous experience though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancermum2003 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Dd was told it would be a while as they hadnโt finished choreographing the pieces so didnโt know the parts that they needed to cast! Wasnโt told a boy/girl split either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancermum2003 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 (edited) Dd is convinced she doesnโt stand a chance so I think she relaxed and enjoyed it for the experience!

Anne ley Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Yes is very confusing. D had email to say that she had audition but could they change venue which she agreed then ย week or so later had another email to say she wasnโt successful.ย Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legseleven Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Anne ley, that doesnโt sound right. They asked her to agree to a change in auditionย venue - she agreed - then they told her she doesnโt have an audition after all? I would contact them to clarify, especially asย she agreed to their request to audition elsewhere. Perhaps that alternative audition venue is no longer feasible?ย But I would definitely ask them to confirm the position because to offer an audition and ask a candidate to attend a different venue surely shouldnโt be followed by a withdrawal of the audition offer altogether? ย Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne ley Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I did call and the lady I spoke to didnโt really have an answer she said she would get her colleague to contact my d . Havenโt heard anything yet obviously my d is very upset . Would of much less disappointing if had a no from the onset . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan McNulty Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 I don't have a dc but I would put your concerns about what has happened in writing and attaching any previous correspondence. ย I find it is always as well to keep a written record when anything like this happens in any sphere of life.
