I too got an recall audition email within the promised 48 hours, it was 24 hours actually!
Mine is next Thursday, again as others have said on here I wish I knew what role specific I was auditioning for!
Having been to the first audition and had a fabulous fun time with all the feel good energy and enthusiasm of everyone there, I cant wait to find out what the 2nd audition is like. I never said I had any specific skills so it will be very interesting to see what they think I can do!
good luck everyone!

Seeing as I only applied 2 days ago as the registration was still online I am assuming there are quite a number of spaces left.
I would like lots of people to be there but if not more of a chance to stand out. :-)


I thought registration closed a long time ago?

I just got the confirmation email and i have got the same date and time as u. are you a dancer?
recall on thursday 24th at 5:30! anybody else?? maybs we can figure out what its for.
I did my first audition at 6pm on Saturday 12th, got my recall email this morning (Monday, 9am) and I will also be at the audition on the 29th Nov at 6pm.

Without bursting the bubble, I dont think it is dancing or acting - they are just looking for 10,000 people to dress in different colours and make shapes so that the stadium shows the following things from the air:

-the union jack (thousands of people in blue, red and white)
-the olympic rings
-London 2012

This is what the guy told me after the audition! So basically our 'role specific' will be putting numbers on us, and then putting us back on the grid and saying things like: odd numbers to J9! even numbers to B3!' etc etc.

No individual glory... all doing it as part of the team! etc etc.

This being said, they were looking for people who resembled historical figures - the queen, prince phillip, david cameron... - who would stand on the stage and wave. The audition for this is in another location and not until late december. :smile:

Exciting times! xxxxxxxxxxxx

Wow, you got a lot of info from them! Thanks for this, I guess alll the exercises we had to do in the first audition was to see if we were coordinated and had stamina? I have my recall audition thiis week, a lot sooner than a lot of people here, so I will try to find out more info if I can, I wonder if it will be the same sort of exercises in the 2nd audition?
