MeganReid Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I am auditioning for the Northern Ballet School soon and I was wondering if anybody knew any information that would be useful to me? For example it's reputation, training etc. Especially from the point of view of aspiring classical dancers! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smallbythesea Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Hi Megan. Welcome! I'm fairly new and have got loads of advice and info on here for my dd. Also look at the northern ballet school's website. Which year are you auditioning for or is it for the associate programme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glowlight Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Just for clarity - are you asking about Northern Ballet School in Manchester (Post 16 full time training) Or the Academy associated with Northern Ballet in Leeds (which runs a CAT scheme and Associate scheme, generally for pre-16/17 training, and is not full time)? The thread which Spanner has linked to explains the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooky Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Was thinking it might be a good idea for people to put Leeds or manchester in brackets after Northern Ballet School references as it is very confusing now and there have been several threads where it is really unclear which one is being talked about. I wonder if anyone at Northern Ballet (Leeds) realises the confusion they have caused by dropping the word Theatre from their title! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pas de Quatre Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Actually, all you need to do is add the third word, NB Company, NB Academy, NB School, although the location in brackets would also help. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
