Welcome singers and players to the East of England Musical Theatre Orchestra (EEMTO)! EEMTO aims to inspire musicians and singers from throughout the East of England (and beyond!) to join together to play through full-length musicals, purley for fun!
An EEMTO playthrough is a unique opportunity to rehearse and perform a musical on a large scale in private. We look to gather around 70+ musicians and singers to form an orchestra and singing ensemble and we anticipate putting on our playthroughs quarterly throughout the county. After separate morning and afternoon rehearsals, the orchestra and singers will meet in the early evening to play through the show from start to finish, but with no audience present - much like a Sitzprobe.
The day is designed to bring musicians together who are either skilled amateurs or professionals with a passion for musical theatre, but is open to all. People come to gain experience, meet potential collaborators but most importantly...have FUN! We do ask that musicians are around grade 7+ so that everyone can benefit and gain experience from a high level of musicianship.
In order to cover venue, score hire, percussion hire and other costs we ask that everyone contributes £15 for the day.
EEMTO is committed to keeping the costs as low as possible however If for any reason you are unable to pay £15 please get in touch directly with us at eemtoinfo@yahoo.com.
Unfortunately due to music hire agreements we're unable to publicly disclose which show we are doing however If you’d like to take part you will need to apply via our sign-up link on our Facebook page (which is free) and we will send you all the information about our playthroughs. Please do check your junk folder as sometimes our EEMTO emails go in there! https://www.facebook.com/pg/theEEMTO/
