To Kill A Mockingbird

Last week we announced our 2018 REP Company's final production, To Kill A Mockingbird, dramatised by Christopher Sergel and directed by our Bryan Forbes Asssitant Director Meghan Doyle. You can catch it this January at the Lyric Hammersmith

Our REP Company have kicked off rehearsals for the show - make sure you follow them on twitter to keep up to date.

Auditions & Interviews

Don’t forget that our national interviews and auditions roadshow is coming this January. If you’re looking to apply for NYT in 2019, or know someone who would be great for our acting or backstage summer courses then make sure they sign up! Bursaries available.

Did you know we can also bring our audition or interview days to schools. If you’re a teacher, or a young person who knows their school would be really keen email sian.davila@nyt.org.uk to find out more

Castings

If you’re a current NYT Company Member who wants to take part in a Casting Audition in 2019 then, although you’ve missed the deadline to book, don’t worry. Email casting@nyt.org.uk to be added to the waiting list for our casting auditions for our 2019 season.

Kings Lynn

Next week is the last week of our short course of weekly free workshops in Kings Lynn, delivered as part of the Youth West Partnership. In the new year we’ll be hosting a pop up audition day in the area, so if you’re local to Kings Lynn keep an eye out for announcements in 2019.
