CYT-Houston is an expansion site of Christian Youth Theater, the largest theater arts youth program in the nation. Our summer camps combine singing, dancing, and acting with lots of fun games, including a wild and wacky water day. Kids divide into teams and make their own team video as well as presenting a free showcase at the end of the camp with highlights from either Disney Spectacular, featuring segments from over 30 Disney hits, or selections from West Side Story.
Every session (fall, winter and spring) CYT offers theater arts classes for children as an after-school activity. Each local branch conducts three ten-week sessions throughout the school year, teaching drama, voice, dance and a broad spectrum of specialty theatrical workshops as weekly two-hour classes. Enrolled students have the opportunity to work behind the scenes, or audition and perform on stage in a Broadway-style musical performed for the community.
Additional performance opportunities are available to CYT students who may participate in CYT Tour Groups performing musical reviews for community and civic functions. Internships, director training, teacher aiding and shadow aiding are other ways for older students to gain additional training and experience.
