What are BYMT Camps?
BYMT Camps are six-day residential stays providing intensive, creative training in music theatre for anyone aged 11-17. They are designed for young people looking to explore their potential and develop their confidence in acting, singing, movement, writing and instrumental playing abilities. They also offer a Grade 6 Certificate in Musical Theatre accredited by Trinity College London. You'll work with top theatre professionals and create a brand-new show in just a week on these exciting residential projects. BYMT Camps do not require an audition - so get booking as it's first come, first served!
"Oyiye came back from Summer Camp a totally changed person - more resilient, more grown up, more self-confident. The following year he auditioned for BYMT productions and was successful. His journey has been truly amazing for us all. And he has the Certificates to prove it!" Carmel Beirne-Francis, Head of Drama, Newman Catholic College, London.
