Seagazer Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Does anyone know whether parents/family are amongst the invited audience for the finals? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peach3 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 When we enquired about tickets we were told only "Friends of Elmhurst" were able to access them but others may have been luckier or may well be "friends". Perhaps the parents of finalists have been able to secure tickets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieW Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 In the past it's only "Friends" so what tends to happen is that parents then join. It does at least mean you then get invited to various other Friends events and can get extra tickets for the end of year performances!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Thank you both so much - I'm pursuing it. but cannot reach anyone who can tell me what time the performance starts! 9Important as I may need to book a hotel, and train ticket prices vary incredibly depending on the time of travel. Can either of you hazard a guess from past experience? There is nothing on the calendar, and I only got the answering machine when I rang up...

Seagazer Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 Thank you both again, delighted to report I am sorted with a ticket and am now a 'friend', and have managed to book both train and hotel for a comparatively modest sum! Isn't it great when things work out! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieW Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Great :-) Have a lovely time. I just wish they'd sort the students out with proper costumes to wear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 I'm just so thrilled he got through, and that I'm able (thanks to you), to go! For once the timing is such that I can just drop everything and support him I have no idea what any of the boys are wearing, but did hear of one girl who had borrowed a tutu for the prelims. Thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieW Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 They may have changed things after listening to us moan over the years, as usually they just wear class uniform (with the girls wearing their practice tutus ). I suppose it gives them a level playing field in one way but I really believe that nice costumes would make them perform better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
