About the Interview
An in-person interview day is made up of two parts, a Group Workshop and a 1-to-1 Interview.
Group Workshop - 10:00am - 1:00pm
You be introduced to National Youth Theatre and what our Backstage membership entails. This is a great chance to meet other potential members, take part in creative tasks & games and do some interview prep with the help of NYT Associates.
1-to-1 Interviews - 2:00pm - 5:00pm
Your individual audition will take place in the afternoon and last for 15 minutes. When you arrive for your audition day, you will be asked to sign up to your time slot. Once you have completed your interview you are free to go home.
The interview is a chance to talk about your experience, why you want to join NYT and ask any questions you may have. You will also be asked to present your response to the Interview Task set out in the interview guide.
Please read through the Interview Guide for more details on what to prepare for the interview.
