Theatre performances for schools and colleges

A number of free tickets are available for schools and colleges to attend performances by the final year students of the London College of Music at UWL and speak with the cast and crew afterwards. In previous years schools have been in to see a variety of performances including Romeo and Juliet, Pippin and Cabaret.

This is an excellent opportunity to see current students in action at a local venue, and is particularly suited for learners considering a career in the performing arts - whether it be classical, jazz and pop performance, composition, live sound production, music technology, musical theatre, acting for stage, theatre production or music management.
