On June 20, Christian Youth Theater Houston celebrated its 20th season with a red carpet event, Community Engagement Director Mary Ramsower confirmed. The fine arts company\u2019s first summer camps were held in 2006, and it has since provided the Greater Houston area with musical theater education for two decades.<\/p>\n
About the program<\/p>\n
CYT is a national after-school theater arts training program dedicated to helping kids and teens grow in their singing, dancing, acting, improvisation and technical skills.<\/p>\n
Offered in two-hour classes throughout the school year, students can receive individualized training from instructors in the discipline of their choosing, according to the company\u2019s website. This class model pushes students to build their character and confidence through participation in workshops, auditions and hands-on production experiences.<\/p>\n
Parents and students interested in signing up for a session can view the current open classes along with their age requirements, scheduling information and pricing online.<\/p>\n
