WYMT was established in 1999 by Michael Pike and Lesley Woodyer as part of the outreach offered by Wolverhampton Music School. 20 Years later and we are an official hub partner of the Music Service, who provide vital funding for our activities from Arts Council and Wolverhampton City Council. We are ran by a team of arts and educational professionals who have mentored and supported many of our members over the years to go onto successful careers on stage, behind the scenes and in many other creative and media pursuits, which many say is down to the opportunities and training WYMT provided for them.
We currently have a long established Senior group who meet for two weeks in August to stage a full scale musical production at The Arena Theatre in September each year and a newly launched junior group who will perform at the Music School in May Half term, following a week of workshops and rehearsals.
