    An amazing video! Thanks so so much Deborah! Hope you are great & had a wonderful Christmas!!!!!! I have a couple of Qs: 1. Can you do a movie monologue for the audition? As your clip was from Fences, did it count as a published play? 2. Did you know much about the early bird deadline and did you submit your audition? 3. Now your a member of NYT, what opportunities have been now given to you that you may not have had otherwise? 🥳🥳🥳🤗🤗🤗

      Hey love, luckily I live in London and I was able to commute every morning. That practically halved the price as I did not have to pay for accommodation. I paid the rest using the money I got from student finance. My mum also helped me out. If those options don’t apply to you they did have a bursary you can apply to. I hope this helps ☺️

    from your previous video i can see you ‘moved’ from pharmacy to theatre, how was it?? i am in the same position as i am going to uni to study pharmacy but have a n interest in acting as well! what advice do you have?

    • @thekelanicorner4112
      @thekelanicorner4112 4 роки тому

      Firstly, thanks for watching my videos. This one is a hard one as I don't think I will be able to cover all I have to say about this topic in a single comment post. I would say if you are going to do pharmacy, make sure that is what you actually want to do. Think back to any work experience you have done and ask yourself "Can I see myself doing this 9am-5pm, 5+days a week. I say this because the course is very hard to do if your heart is not in it. If pharmacy is for you then I would find ways to act whilst doing your degree I have a video about acting whilst at uni. I will probably make a video dedicated to this but I hope this helps in the meantime.

    Please are the intake summer courses free? (Excluding Accommodation and audition fees). I really want to audition in March, but I need to know if I need to pay to do the actual course. Thank you.

    • @thekelanicorner4112
      @thekelanicorner4112 4 роки тому

      I don’t believe it is free as you will be put on one of the 3 summer courses (junior, senior or Epic Stages) which all costs various amounts. If money is an issue they do offer a bursary to help fund the course, however I don’t know how much they give. I hope this helps.

      Hey Maddy, so you perform your monologue in front of the workshop co-ordinator and one ambassador of NYT. The ambassador is just there to be a familiar, friendly face and you may be asked to do you monologue to them. Don't worry you won't have to do it in front of other auditionees.

      I paid for my course in full. I am not sure if they do partial payments, I would suggest asking them at the audition or calling the number given to you in your acceptance email.
