Thank you for coming to our Pantomime Dress Rehearsal!

At the end of November we invited all members to bring themselves and a guest along to our Pantomime Dress Rehearsal. This was an amazing chance for our cast to practise with an audience and for you to get a glimpse backstage during one of our busiest periods. Thank you to all who came for being a lovely receptive audience. We're excited to host more exclusive member events like this!

Fun at Guys and Dolls Guest Night!

A huge thank you to our Creative Circle and Directors Circle members who attended our exclusive Guest Night of Guys and Dolls! We had a great time celebrating the huge achievement of our young performers. A big thank you to you for your support as high-level members who make it possible for us to provide bursaries for this project.

Guys and Dolls rehearsals have begun!

For those new to us, each summer we run a Wakefield Youth Music Theatre project that gives local young people the chance to perform in a professional run of shows on our stage. Under the expert guidance of our tutors, they have two weeks in August to stage a musical to a professional level ready for opening night on Wednesday 20 August. Rehearsals begun at the beginning of this week. We can't wait to have them on the stage with us soon! Click here to book tickets if you haven't already.
