Teachers' Union Sponsors YMT The UK's largest teachers' union NASUWT is to sponsor Youth Music Theatre UK. Chris Keates, General Secretary said, "The union is extremely committed to causes which benefit, support and celebrate the talents of young people. We have been developing a relationship with YMT over a number of years. YMT is an extremely valuable resource for teachers and schools, providing the highest quality productions and development opportunities. We are very proud to be the main sponsor of YMT."
The NASUWT's support will underpin the summer programme which includes new productions of A Beggar's Opera, Peter Pan, A Winter's Tale and The Savage (by David Almond). Artists working with the company this summer and offering their expertise to the young performers include composers Harvey Brough (once of Harvey and the Wallbangers) and Howard Goodall, classical BRIT Award winner.
YMT's programme of work includes intensive residential courses for the most talented young performers, a broad based training programme for young professionals and a growing outreach programme which encourages involvement by young people from a wide range of backgrounds including the most disadvantaged.
