Janet Lewis, Director of the EYB, itself one of the largest ballet companies in the UK, states that: “The EYB audition is an experience in itself. EYB is all about performance experience and this starts at the audition as the dancers are given a regular ballet class on the stage.  Parents and family are encouraged to watch from the audience. We are looking for young dancers of all abilities who can show the audience how much they enjoy their dancing".

Young dancers have described it as “the best thing I have ever done”. 

The audition fee is £15.00, with each audition taking the form of a regular ballet class. Parents are invited to watch.
