Fun stories:

1) Paid fee. Brought pianist. They insisted on their pianist + fee. Their pianist botched my (standard) aria.

2) Paid fee. Sick on audition day. Called x2, Emailed x2. Blocked from ever auditioning again. Found out AFTER they took the next year’s fee. https://twitter.com/dervogelfamber/status/1199576160566415362
3) Paid fee. Flew to audition. Learned the shows were already cast.

The way most YAP and Apprentice programs handle application fees and the audition process is such a messed up racket. The last thing young performers need is to waste their money and energy.
