Applying For Drama School

10. RECALLS

If you are fortunate enough to be offered a recall… well done!

But you are nowhere near home yet. A recall can only be treated as a good sign. Read their letter and understand it. Recalls are different in every school. You may have to do your song this time, or a workshop with others, movement classes, or some voice work. Just make sure you know what is coming and prepare.

They may want you to do a new piece. They may want you to think about what they said to you on your first audition about the pieces they’ve already seen. The first recall might be part of a longer process with several more. This can take a long time. You need stamina and you need to stay fresh. At this stage it is very easy to go off the boil, start to tire of the process, get complacent and worry less. But THIS is the time for the real hard work. You are so close but could be so far. It is still a test of your will and how much you want it.

GOOD LUCK
