Youth Music Theatre UK

Actor Auditions

ABOUT US

British Youth Music Theatre (BYMT) is the leading musical theatre charity for young people. We work across the UK and Ireland with West End professionals to offer unique opportunities and high-quality training to young people. Since 2003 we have trained over 8,000 young people, many of whom have successfully entered the creative industries such as Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith, Lauren Samuels, Charlotte Ritchie, Jack Bence, Lucy Griffiths, Luke McCall, Bradley Jaden and many more.

Next January and February, BYMT will be touring across the UK and Ireland in search of talented young performers and musicians to perform in our next season of new music theatre. Auditions are open to anyone aged 11-21 and no previous experience is necessary. The auditions consist of a 3-hour workshop led by West End professionals and combining singing, dancing and acting - in a totally inclusive and friendly environment! 

Do you speak French?
This year we are also looking for some people with a good level of French (conversational), so if you have a love for musical theatre and the "language of Molière", come join our auditions!

WHAT HAPPENS IF I AM SUCCESSFUL?

You will work with West End professionals to build a full-scale musical show from the ground up and perform in the UK’s most prestigious venues and festivals!
