Watnots Music - About Us

Watnots music produces musicals for children to perform in your school, drama group, church or wherever you like!

All the musicals are educational and fun to sing. "Watnots music" prides itself on providing quality music that is written specifically for primary school children.

We want to cut down your work load and so we provide a score which is clear and easy to use with a C.D. of backing tracks, sung and unsung.

I hope you enjoy our music!

Sarah Watney for Watnots music

Watnots Music produces musicals especially designed for children to perform, with tunes that are catchy, upbeat, and enjoyable. In fact Samantha - a very special friend of mine - can't stop singing them! And the ingenious thing is that without realising it Samantha's learning facts whilst singing songs. What better way to liven up learning!

Of course the educational benefits are countless: team work, discipline, training and memory, (to name a few). Add to this, the sheer joy of taking part and receiving praise - important for a child's sense of self-worth - and you have a very attractive package.

Children love it, mums and dads love it and I highly recommend it!!!

Sarah Watney - Lyricist and script writer Sarah got a B.A. Honours in Dramatic Arts at Bretton Hall, Leeds University. She then did a post-graduate in acting and singing at Mountview Theatre School. The last 7 years she has performed and taught to thousands of children across the country. She has visited many primary schools as a specialist drama teacher and has directed shows with children at the Polka Theatre, Bridewell Theatre, Thorndike Theatre and in many schools. All the "Watnots" musicals are directed, tried and tested by Sarah!

Alastair McPherson - Composer Alastair has been composing music for the last 15 years, having received a classical training as a cathedral chorister and music scholar. His work to date, apart from the Watnot's musicals, include two major stage musicals, one of which has its second run later this year. He is also currently moving into media composition for the internet, television, animation and corporate film work and hopes that through the launch of Watnots his collaboration with Sarah Watney will increase the access of musical theatre to more and more young people.
