For students aged 14-21

This is an intensive five-day course designed for students interested in auditioning for professional vocational colleges, culminating into a mock audition. The course provides an opportunity for students to gain the necessary skills and confidence to embark on auditions. Over the five days, they will be prepared with a solo song and monologue, as well as being tutored in audition technique for ballet and jazz. These courses are led by members of the Urdang faculty.

Our Pre-audition course runs twice a year (October half term and during the summer). Feedback from former students has been very positive. Many have successfully gained places in full-time performing arts training.

Next Course date:
Monday 27th July 2020 - Friday 31st July 2020
