Story
Thank you for visiting Emeli's page.
Emeli has been offered a part in one of YMT UK's 2017 music theatre productions and got one of only 300 places after 1000+ young people auditioned! She was offered a place in their summer production 'More in Common' written by Jo Meredith which will be performed at Square Chapel Theatre in Halifax on 19th & 20th August. (http://www.squarechapel.co.uk/whats-on/more-in-common/)
This is a massive opportunity for her, allowing her to act with and be tutored by West End professionals and others from the industry as well as get a real kick-start to achieving her dream. Unfortunately, the price for the tuition fees is beyond our reach and we really need all the help we can get and would really really appreciate any donations, however small! She is busking as often as she can and helping to teach younger children dance with her local drama school to raise some money to go towards her funding. Please help if you can.
The funding is required to cover accommodation and food for the residential rehearsals, pastoral care and all tutoring and experience gained in rehearsal and performance.

7 years agoOne week to go to the show! Hoping you can come and see it too having helped make it possible for Emeli to be in it! She is having a fantastic time rehearsing with the choreographer, director and musical director. Experience of a lifetime! Still a few tickets left on the Saturday I think.

Emeli and I are doing all we can to save, and cut corners to raise enough to pay for YMT. It's £1450 in total (we have £500 so far from her dad) and we need to raise the remaining £950. You can see her singing here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kBZ3ivIC28
