Company members
We will be holding our Company auditions on Wednesday 18th September. All students should start off by attending the audition for their CURRENT COMPANY CLASS. We will then advise whether they should stay to try the audition for the next class. So, to be clear students don’t select which company they want to audition for, they attend the audition for the company they danced with in the show and we will take it from there!
We will follow a similar plan to last year’s auditions:
- Audition fee will be £5, payable on the night.
- Students will be taught a phrase which is applicable to the level, age range of the 4 Companies.
- We will then set a Solo choreography task.
Provisional times are below - these will be confirmed when we return in September
Company 4 4.30 to 5.15pm
Company 3 5.15 to 6pm
Company 2 6 to 6.45pm
Company 1 6.45 to 7.30pm
It is important to remember that Company is about attitude and commitment in the weekly class, attendance at residency weekends and in the additional rehearsals running up to a show – all of which is set down in the Company contracts.
We want to be absolutely clear that we will offer everyone a place in an appropriate class. We don’t believe in auditions which reject young people and exclude them. We will approach this process in an inclusive mindset which is all about finding the right class for the right student
Thank you all,
Jackie, Sian and the team xx
