A-Team Productions are anEdinburghbased Not-For-Profit youth musical theatre company who stage one production every year. We allow young people, aged 11-18, from a wide variety of different backgrounds and interests to learn how to dance, sing and act twice a week using local facilities and volunteers. We cater for 25 members to be in the cast and approximately 20 other young people assisting behind the scenes to get the show ready. Our ethos focuses on building young peoples confidence, bringing them together to socialise, learn and promote a healthy lifestyle.
