Theatre--Classes/Workshops

CYT is the nation's largest youth theater program with over 300,000 people across the country watching their performances last year. They are a church neutral but Christ-centered program. The goal of CYT is to take children ages 4 to 18 and teach them to sing, dance, act and all aspects of theater. More importantly, CYT builds character in kids by teaching them self esteem and leadership with accord with Christian principles. The children involved will get to be in Broadway style performances for the community three times a year.

The great news is that Lafayette has just been approved by CYT National to be the next affiliate. They will be joining thirty other affiliates across the nation. They have been meeting with the local church community for the last two months and have had great response across multiple denominations.

CYT will officially begin classes in August. The next big event is the Parent Interest meeting on Friday, May 1st. This will be a great night for curious parents to come out and get all the information on CYT. Children ages 4 to 18 in attendance will be taught a small routine to perform for the parents at the end of the meeting.
