Hello SJBallet,

 

if you use the search function and search for the phrase “EYB casting” there have been a few topics about what happens on casting day.  Hopefully one of these might help if nobody comes along in the meantime:

There will be a meeting for all parents and children at the beginning then parents leave but the finish time is dependent on how far from the venue you live. Those furthest away have their press photos taken earliest so they can get away.

With EYB you get to watch the audition as obviously you already know, then that is it in terms of parental viewing until the last rehearsal day in the school. Then you get to watch a full run through of the performance without costumes - the change from the audition is usually quite amazing. 

There is always a space made available for parents in the school being used for rehearsals so you do have somewhere to sit if you are not local, but you are not allowed to watch anything. Personally I usually went out to find something to do during rehearsals, even if it was just mooch around the shops - they are long days otherwise.
