Not a recall question, just a question in general about Urdang.

DS dance isn't his strength so didn't apply at Urdang. But having just had a look at their course, it seems that they offer you to go down different pathways, eg musical theatre, actor/singing and dance. Does anyone know what standard of dance they expect at entry level?

Hi

The dance is very tough at the audition , my daughter is strong in dance and thought it was the hardest of all the colleges, and she auditioned for eight. But saying that, if your dc is strong in other disciplines, then it would be worth still applying. But just make them aware , that the dance part will be tough x good luck with whatever you decide x

My ds is at Urdang in his 2nd year. In the first year everyone does the about the same amount of dance classes although streamed and it is full on, usually 2 or 3 95min classes a day along with various singing and acting classes. The standard is incredibly high (I watched a few in house videos) watch their move it performances and that is just a small selection of their students many others with just as much talent. It streams in the 2nd year to MT (triple threat), acting and singing and pure dance. My ds was intermediate level dance when he applied and is now on the acting and singing stream and loving it, he still does one or two dance classes a day along with 2 or 3 various singing and acting classes. I’d say the dance standard to get in was generally very high unless you have a truly phenomenal voice but can still move. Hope this helps.
