Musical Theatre

Past Shows

Every year Woking Youth Theatre produces a full-scale musical at The Rhoda McGaw Theatre.

Musical theatre is a massive industry, pulling audiences where straight plays struggle to get ‘bums on seats’; in 2017 the West End total revenue from musical theatre was more than double that of straight plays.

A good grounding in musical theatre, therefore, is very important for anyone looking for a career in the performing arts.

It’s also a lot of fun.

You don’t need to be a great singer or a great dancer to take part. All you need is the enthusiasm and we’ll make you look and sound great as a member of the chorus.

If the limelight is more your thing we will take your raw talent and equip you with the skills to turn in a fantastic performance.

Or if you would prefer to work behind the scenes we have many roles available.

Just some of the roles required to put on a great show:

lead performer
supporting performer
chorus
stage manager
stage crew
set designer
lighting operator
sound mixer
choreographer
musical director
musician
director

Our team of ex Woking Youth Theatre professionals have worked in TV, film and theatre and have the skills and experience to create a show any company would be proud of, as demonstrated by the amazing feedback on our shows, Alice in Wonderland, Bugsy Malone and Little Shop of Horrors.
