Welcome to CYT!

Christian Youth Theater (CYT) is the largest after-school theater arts training program in the nation. Affiliates across the country offer classes in drama, music, dance, technical theater, and more! Each local program offers camps and classes for ages 7 - 18, and full-scale productions for ages 8-18.

Students are required to be enrolled in a CYT class in order to audition for the season production.  Classes are 9 weeks and are generally held in the evening from 6pm-8pm unless they are dance classes (5pm-7pm).  Production rehearsals are held on Saturday from 9am-3pm starting the first week of classes and transition to 9am-4pm the last 3 weeks before the show opens.

How To Set Up A New Family Account

All families will need to register for a new account on our new website. Here's a handy tutorial to walk you through it. Questions? Contact austin@cyt.org.
CYT classes include drama, voice, dance, and a broad spectrum of other specialty theatrical workshops. There are three sessions a year (Fall, Winter, and Spring), and a showcase at the end of each session that allows students to show off what they have learned to family & friends.
Students that are enrolled in classes have the opportunity to audition and perform (or work behind-the-scenes) in a Broadway-style musical performed for the community. CYT shows are appropriate for the entire family and are an excellent way to introduce children to the arts.
