About Us
Welcome to the Liverpool John Moores Musical Theatre Society (JMMTS)! We are an inclusive, arts-focused society open to everyone at LJMU, whether you’ve stepped on stage before or are completely new to the world of musical theatre. Our mission is to celebrate every aspect of musical theatre, from acting, singing, and dancing to behind-the-scenes creativity like production and set design. We believe musical theatre is for everyone—whether you love performing under the spotlight, enjoy belting out your favourite tunes, or prefer to sit back and appreciate the magic from the audience. Our society is a place to make friends, build confidence, and share your love of musicals in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Through workshops, social events, and screenings, we aim to foster creativity and community in equal measure.
Key Information
For the 2024/2025 academic year, JMMTS plans to meet every Wednesday for approximately two hours. These sessions will be varied and engaging, including singing, acting, and dancing workshops designed to develop your skills and have fun. We also run drama games, musical screenings, and informal get-togethers, making sure there’s something for everyone to enjoy regardless of experience or interest. Social events will be scheduled regularly, approximately every few weeks, based on members’ preferences, allowing for even more opportunities to connect outside of workshops.
Why Us?
JMMTS isn’t just for seasoned performers—it’s for anyone with a love for musical theatre in all its forms. Whether you want to sing your heart out, try acting, learn some choreography, help produce shows, or simply enjoy a sing-along and watch performances with friends, this society is built for you. We’re passionate about bringing people together to explore musical theatre in a supportive, fun environment where creativity can flourish. Joining means making new friends, gaining new skills, and being part of a welcoming community that celebrates every voice and talent.
