About CYT Shows

Enrollment in CYT classes provides students ages 8-18 the opportunity to audition for the current production. CYT Chapters produce one Broadway-style musical each session: (no fall 2020 musical) Winter, and Spring. Students who want to be part of the show without performing can apply to be part of our backstage crew.

CYT shows are appropriate for the entire family and are an excellent way to introduce children to the arts at a young age!

 

Auditions

Students ages 8 - 18 who are enrolled in CYT classes are invited to audition for our mainstage production. Auditions consist of a one-minute song performed for the Artistic Team, followed by learning and performing a short dance routine in a small group. The audition process may also include a “callback” on a later date, during which the student would be asked to read for a speaking role in the play. Auditions are a wonderful way for students to gain self-confidence, and to show the best of their talents!

Students ages 12+ who are interested in being involved behind the scenes may apply to be a member of our Backstage Crew!

Parent Committees

Parents are the backbone of CYT! Without them, CYT would not be the family-oriented organization that it is, in additoin to producing high-quality shows! 

At least one parent of each student cast in the production is required to serve on a CYT Parent Committee. Options include, but are not limited to: costumes, refreshments, props, greenroom, backstage, public relations, sets, docents, technical, make-up, programs, and house management.
