More Than Recitation
In every PYT rehearsal cast members receive an educational, inspirational experience that increases cast members' skill, comprehension, and confidence. If you don't grow, what's the point of the show?
Serious Support
Overwhelm? Rather not. Our admin elves break down all you need to know for your show - From email/text message reminders, digital practice materials, and even a community message board!
Super Star Treatment
We roll out the metaphoric red carpet for PYT cast members! Get showered with swag (cast T-shirts), the best press (personalized digital show posters), and VIP events (cast party!).
Your Own Dream Team
This isn’t the babysitters club. Our students learn from pros who are worthy heroes: veterans of the stage, experienced educators, that love, inspire, are overflowing with passion and positivity. We live to teach.
All-welcome Shows
Cast members can audition for lead roles in these productions, but it’s not mandatory. Regardless of whether they audition, everyone is guaranteed an ensemble role, irrespective of their experience or skill level. This approach creates a welcoming and supportive environment for performers of all abilities to learn and grow, acting as a great first step into the theatre world for those new to it.
Debut Revue Program
Grades K-5
A year-long delightful revue-style program allowing our youngest performers to learn and have fun.

MainStage Program
Grades 2 +
A year-long musical development program catering to various experience levels.
Time commitment: a weekly ensemble class, additional rehearsals for prominent roles, select full-day rehearsals near performance dates, and three tech evenings during the show week. This dedicated preparation results in a high-quality, professional production.
Audition-based Shows
In this format, cast members are required to audition for roles. Selected participants are assigned roles and ensemble spots based on their experience, skill level, and other determining factors. This approach offers a competitive environment for performers to challenge themselves, making it ideal for those with prior experience or seeking to advance their skills in the theatre world.

Headline Program
Grades 7 +
8-12 week audition-based shows tailored for experienced students seeking a challenging performance opportunity within a shorter time frame.
Time commitment: the typical time commitment can vary depending on the production’s complexity and the participants’ schedules. Additionally, as the performance date approaches, there might be longer or more frequent rehearsals, including tech and dress rehearsals.
Pro Show
By recruiting the best tech teams, costume designers, and auditoriums in town, we bring stories to life in dazzling ways and create a setting worthy of our performers’ talents and hard work. "Lights, drama, action!”
Convenience = Key
Your schedule is a nail biting balancing act. That's why we supply all important dates upfront, promise no late nights (despite the theatre “norm”) and schedule practices on the same day/time, 90% of the time.
Cast Bonding
The closer a cast is off stage, the more magic there is on stage! Why? Because the connections are real. Multiple cast gatherings (parties) throughout the run create life-long friendships and bring the fun!
You Succeed!
Drama trauma is not an option. Our performers are prepared mentally, physically, and emotionally to step on stage with confidence; an experience that will change their lives...for the better.
We leave no stone unturned - for students or parents.
Text & Email Reminders
We make sure you don't get left behind and that you receive all updates and reminders on time.

Keeping track of "who needs what when" can be tricky. PYT gives you all show resources in one location.
