We formed Tempo Musical Productions in 1990 and as Executive Producers we are responsible for the conception and instigation of each project and the coordination and presentation of the final production, always striving for the bestpossible theatrical experience.
Since 1991 we have produced a wide variety of successful shows, ranging from old favourites to modern musicals - all of which have established Tempo as a leading force in Scotland's musical calendar.
We have also performed on the Edinburgh Festival Fringe on a number of occasions and in 2007 we were winners of the inaugural Edinburgh Evening News Drama Award.For the past two year's we have won theScottish Sun Edinburgh Festivals' Cavalcade.
What We Do

Tempo Musical Productions is a registered charity which works within the Edinburgh area, performing to capacity audiences and achieving the highest levels in community theatre. We take a professional approach to amateur theatre, from first audition workshops through intensive rehearsal to the finished performance, incorporating creative technical design of the highest standards.
Within this professional approach we also involve young people at every stage, and actively train, encourage and promote their interest in all aspects of theatre. This is achieved under the supervision and support of our talented teams of dedicated and experienced cast, crew, musicians, directors, technicians and designers. Each production involves around one hundred members in the Company.
As a registered charity ourselves (SC000244), we have donated a proportion of our proceedings to various local charities, such as the British Heart Foundation, Dr. Barnardo's, The Woodland Trust and The Sick Kid's Foundation.
Currently, Tempo are the only adult amateur musical theatre company in Edinburgh to have staged the following productions:-
| They're Playing Our Song | I'm Getting My Act Together And Taking It On The Road |
| CHESS | Follies |
| Grand Hotel | City Of Angels |
| The Full Monty | Jekyll & Hyde - The Musical |
| Spend Spend Spend | The Witches Of Eastwick |
| The Rink | Showbiz Express |
