Perfect Pitch

Perfect Pitch is a not-for-profit theatre company, supported by Arts Council England, dedicated to creating new British musicals. Established in 2006, we work in collaboration with venues, writers, producers and creatives all over the UK and beyond to create, develop, produce and license high quality new British musicals.

We work together with the writers and composers throughout the journey of the musical from initial idea to full production, offering creative and dramaturgical support, workshops and readings along the way. Once they are fully developed Perfect Pitch licenses the shows to both professional and amateur companies in the UK and overseas. To date, our new musicals have had full productions all over the world including London’s West End, New York, Korea, Japan, Belgium, Mexico, California and Indiana.

We also have a collection of work, currently featuring Lift and From Up Here, on digitaltheatre.com for audiences worldwide to view online.

British productions include: The Go-Between 2016, Apollo Theatre Shaftesbury Avenue; Lift, Soho Theatre, London; The House of Mirrors & Hearts, Arcola Theatre, London; From Up Here, the Wilde Theatre, South Hill Park; The Go-Between 2011, West Yorkshire Playhouse/Royal and Derngate/Derby Live; Defect, Arts Educational School; Lia’s Guide to Winning the Lottery and In Touch, The Musical Theatre Academy; The 45th Marvellous Chatterley Village Fete (previously titled Sex and the Village), Theatre Royal, Bury St.Edmunds; Danny Hero, The Core, Corby.

We are proud to be endorsed by two high-profile patrons, Michael Ball and Stephen Fry. In 2011 Stephen Fry hosted our gala concert The Great British Musical at the Criterion Theatre London, featuring songs from our new musicals alongside classic British musical theatre songs and performed by a host of West End stars including Alfie Boe, Michael Xavier, Emma Williams and Julie Atherton. Michael Ball has hosted and judged our Perfect Pitch Award in 2014 (in association with The Royal & Derngate) and in 2016 (in association with Theatre Royal Stratford East) both held at St James Theatre, London.
