Re: Auditioning for Sept 2019

My dd is at GSA. the only course affected is the Theatre and Performance Course. No other courses are affected at all - all BA MT and Actor Muso programmes are running and will continue to do so. GSA continues to be one of the leading conservatories for Musical Theatre.

Re: Auditioning for Sept 2019

Fantastic news Felicity. My DD is a 2nd year at GSA and the feelings and emotions you go through on this roller coaster are immense. When your DC gets a place at the school of their dreams there is no better feeling. My DC chose GSA over other well placed schools she had offers from and has never re...

Re: GSA - Audition song choice

My dd sang Way back to Then from Title of Show for 1st and a completely contrasting one - Will he Like Me from She Loves Me for recall. These showed belt and head voice. It worked for her - I think they need to see whole range so choose a song that can do that in the 2 mins! Best of luck :D

Re: Auditioning for 2017

That's wonderful news Stageyails, has she decided if she's going to accept it? Dd is doing the ArtsEd foundation, she'd really like to stay there but we won't know if she has an offer for a few weeks yet. Hi Soda- she has 2 more auditions to go (Mountview and Bird- where she currently studies) and ...

Re: Auditioning for 2017

Thank you all so much for your lovely comments! It is a relief for her- we have certainly learnt that you need nerves of steel in this profession. It is not an easy journey at times. She has had many rejections up until now- I guess this time her face fitted at GSA. I think it all depends on the typ...

Re: GSA Recall

Hi Stageyails and Soda Was anything mentioned about grades today? Just wondering because of previous posts we've had about it. And well done to both your DC's on getting a Recall. I think it's about 2000 that apply for that course and only a few get recalled. So I think that proves the standard you...

Re: Urdang Recalls - Diploma / Degree

It was 3 years ago now but after my DD's Recall at Urdang she got a letter to say she had secured the Diploma (but no funding) and was on the Reserve for the Degree. She later did get an offer for the Degree but had already decided to go to GSA by then so didn't take it. But for anyone on the Reser...

Re: Auditioning for 2017

Well there were 26 at the GSA recall today, 4 kept back for interview (2 girls, 2 boys), sadly dd wasn't one of them. I've spoken to her, she is fine and feels she did her best. Onwards and upwards! Stageyails does your dd's name begin with L ? Hi soda. Yes- dd was very lucky - this time she got th...

Re: Urdang Recalls - Diploma / Degree

Thanks ! Yes I guess the letter offering diploma is the final and only offer sadly. It's just strange that they made no reference to the degree recall in the letter.
