National Youth Music Theatre has a rich history that began in 1976 in Edinburgh. 

The first production, The Ballad of Salomon Pavey won a Fringe First Award at the Edinburgh Fringe, putting the new company immediately on the map. Since then, NYMT has staged countless shows across the UK and internationally. For half a century, NYMT has played a pivotal role in nurturing young talent and premiering new musical works, becoming a respected cornerstone of youth theatre in the UK.
