LOSERVILLE to Open At West Yorkshire Playhouse, Summer 2012
Today it was officially announced that YMT's 2009 production of Loserville The Musical will now be produced professionally and will open at the West Yorkshire Playhouse next summer!
LOSERVILLE is a co-production arrangement between The Playhouse, Kevin Wallace Ltd and Youth Music Theatre UK.
This original musical, written by ex-Busted singer/songwriter James Bourne and writer/composer Elliot Davis, was commissioned and produced by YMT at the Wilde Theatre, South Hill Park Arts Centre, Bracknell in 2009. It was subsequently optioned by Kevin Wallace for professional production and it will now premiere at the West Yorkshire Playhouse in Leeds in June 2012.
We believe this is the first time a musical commissioned for non-professional performance by a youth arts organisation has moved into the professional industry .
Composer Elliot Davis and Director Steven Dexter will be joining the YMT national auditions 2012 team, and as well as looking for actors, singers, dancers, musicians and technicians for our next season, they will also be scouting for talent to join the Loserville cast. YMT auditions can be booked via the YMT website.
Tickets for Loserville, which will be performed from 16th June - 14th July 2012, are available to book via the West Yorkshire Playhouse website.
