  • Our 2026 Fall Musical will be “The Music Man”

    Bybart-n-bob

    YATS is thrilled to announce that this year’s Fall Musical will be The Music Man. One of Broadway’s most beloved classics, The Music Man tells the story of fast-talking salesman Harold Hill, who arrives in small-town Iowa determined to swindle the locals by selling them band instruments and uniforms for a band he has no intention of forming. His plans are complicated when he falls for Marian, the town’s sharp-witted librarian. Packed with unforgettable songs such as “Seventy-Six Trombones,” “Trouble,” and “Till There Was You,” this heartwarming show celebrates community spirit, romance, and the transformative power of music. We are delighted to return to Le Point d’Eau in Ostwald. This wonderful venue has been home to many of our most memorable productions, and we can’t…

    Bybart-n-bob

    YATS a le plaisir d’annoncer que la comédie musicale d’automne de cette année sera The Music Man (Le Marchand de fanfares). L’un des grands classiques de Broadway, The Music Man raconte l’histoire d’Harold Hill, un vendeur charismatique et manipulateur qui arrive dans une petite ville de l’Iowa avec l’intention d’arnaquer ses habitants en leur vendant des instruments et des uniformes pour une fanfare d’enfants qu’il ne compte jamais créer. Ses plans se compliquent lorsqu’il tombe amoureux de Marian, la bibliothécaire aussi brillante qu’indépendante. Porté par des chansons inoubliables telles que « Seventy-Six Trombones », « Trouble » et « Till There Was You », ce spectacle chaleureux célèbre l’esprit de communauté, la romance et le pouvoir transformateur de la musique. Nous sommes ravis de retrouver…

  • YATS gibt das Herbstmusical 2026 bekannt: Der Musikmann

    Bybart-n-bob

    YATS freut sich bekannt zu geben, dass das diesjährige Herbstmusical The Music Man sein wird. Einer der beliebtesten Broadway-Klassiker, The Music Man erzählt die Geschichte des redegewandten Betrügers Harold Hill, der in einer kleinen Stadt in Iowa auftaucht, um den Bewohnern Musikinstrumente und Uniformen für eine Jungenkapelle zu verkaufen, obwohl er nie vorhat, diese Kapelle tatsächlich zu gründen. Seine Pläne geraten jedoch ins Wanken, als er sich in Marian, die kluge und selbstbewusste Bibliothekarin der Stadt, verliebt. Mit unvergesslichen Songs wie „Seventy-Six Trombones“, „Trouble“ und „Till There Was You“ feiert dieses herzerwärmende Musical Gemeinschaftssinn, Romantik und die verbindende Kraft der Musik. Wir freuen uns sehr, erneut im Le Point d’Eau in Ostwald zu spielen. Diese wunderbare Spielstätte war Schauplatz vieler unserer eindrucksvollsten Produktionen, und wir…

  • Samuel Ducrey: where are they now?

    Bybart-n-bob

    Samuel is in the Spotlight Shows: How to Succeed…, Grease, Oklahoma, Annie, Urinetown, Guys & Dolls, The Humans, Fiddler on the Roof. I’m currently writing this on the plane back to London, where I am in my second year of a bachelor’s degree in Economics at University College London. Although my studies are becoming more challenging and, to my dismay, I’m spending more time in the library than in the pub, I’m really enjoying the whole process. Over the past couple of years, I’ve moved to the other side of the fourth wall, taking on the role of the spectator. Being so close to the West End, I’ve had the chance to see quite a few plays and musicals. A notable highlight was Nicholas Hytner’s…
