Beyond Broadway Anmeldelser 

My daughter absolutely loves Beyond Broadway! She has now done 2 years in Edinburgh with footloose last year and little shop of horrors this year. Each time she has loved every minute of the rehearsals, made loads of new friends, and been talking about the following year as soon as it’s all over. I would absolutely recommend for any kids who love dancing, singing and acting. It’s fantastic for them to experience performing at the Festival Theatre too, and the shows are such high quality for family and friends to enjoy. Thanks so much to everyone on the team who work so hard to make this experience possible.

I joined BBEXP for Footloose 2025 and then came back for Little Shop Of Horrors 2026, I had a wonderful time in both. I already loved musical theatre but it was a great challenge learning a whole show in two weeks, it improved my skills in picking up dance quicker as that was where I used to struggle a lot more. Festival theatre is a beautiful venue and amazing to perform in. Thank you for a great experience. :)

BBEXP has genuinely changed our lives, and very much for the better! We initially joined simply looking for an opportunity for our daughter to grow, explore musical theatre and see how much she enjoyed performing at a higher level. We had no idea what we were getting into. It has ignited a real passion in her. She is more motivated, works harder than ever and, most importantly, absolutely loves every minute of it. It has given her inspiration, role models, confidence, a sense of belonging and a much clearer path ahead. As parents, watching her discover something she is so passionate about has been incredible. Huge thanks to the whole team for creating such a special environment for young performers to learn, grow and fall in love with what they do.
We genuinely couldn’t recommend BBEXP highly enough!

It’s the best two weeks of the year. My little boy enjoys doing it so much I would definitely recommend it to loads of people. He recommended it to his friends and it’s just something that he feels happy to do every summer and he says it’s just amazing being in a production with loads of professionals.

Spent an incredible fortnight with the folks at BBExp, and it truly was the highlight of my year! For the second consecutive year, I've been privileged to join this outstanding and gifted group, and I'm eager for another opportunity to experience it all over again. The camaraderie is fantastic, with a blend of hard work and enjoyment, making the performances at the Festival Theatre absolutely worthwhile.

When my daughter got accepted to the cast for Cats last year I will admit I was a bit unsure how they could make a cast that size work and for them all to feel involved and was concerned about what she had committed to. Skip forward to July and she had the most amazing experience, they all worked so hard but had so much fun and it was great seeing them have the opportunity to learn and develop over the two weeks and to make some great friends.
On seeing the show I was blown away by the performance and coordination of all those young people on stage. Such talent, engagement and enthusiasm.
A brilliant opportunity and an amazing experience handled hugely professionally by cast and crew alike.

An amazing experience for young people and heartwarming to see them grow over the intense 2 weeks culminating in 3 shows at the wonderful Festival Theatre.

This is fantastic summer project with exceptionally high standards and production values giving young Scottish talent a fantastic opportunity.
The final result was 3 truly remarkable shows! Definitely get involved!!!!

The scale of professionalism is out this world, It was amazing to see so many talented young individuals take the stage and deliver a world class performance. Just incredible. Would 100% recommend for any child wanting to take their next step into the performing world

Best 2 weeks of the year! Love it!

Fantastic experience for all young people involved. Great company to work with.

Thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Beyond Broadway. The level of talent and professionalism was like no other, already looking forward to next year.

My daughter had an absolutely amazing time with beyond broadway. 2 weeks rehearsals, topped off by 3 fantastic shows. She’s made memories that will last a lifetime and is already talking about next year. Can’t recommend enough, everyone is so helpful and inclusive, a great experience for any young person.

Excellent show!

Amazing show CATS was and was so proud to be able to take part in this show. The experience alone was amazing!
All the staff are lovely especially Drew and Murray, love everything that they do with us. Would highly recommend 😁

Had the best two weeks of the year with everyone at BBExp! Second year in a row being part of this amazing talented team & I hope to get a chance to do it all again! Everyone is so friendly, it’s hard work and great fun, all worth it to perform in the Festival Theatre.

Our daughter loved taking part - from the auditions to rehearsals to performances. The performances were amazing and showcased some fantastic young talent. Would highly recommend future BBEXP for young performers to take part and for audience members to attend.
