If you’d like to join the Fabric’s CAT you’ll need to attend an admissions workshop.

Our admissions workshops are free to attend, fun and accessible to everyone, and we encourage anyone who’s interested in joining the CAT to apply. You don’t need to have previous dance experience; we look for potential. 

Everyone who applies, and is eligible, will be invited to attend the admissions workshop.  

The admissions workshop is your opportunity to demonstrate your potential by taking part in a practical dance session and creative workshop in front of a selection panel. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer places outside this process. 

You must be 11 – 16 years old to join the scheme or up to 23 years if d/Deaf or Disabled. 

If you are unable to make this admission workshop, you are welcome to attend the Birmingham one and still be considered for your nearest/preferred programme.

To get involved and gain more experience in the lead-up to our next recruitment phase, see our Associated Youth Companies page or sign up for our free monthly GetSet sessions.
