Parent Involvement in a CYT Show
Unlike many children’s theatre programs, parents are essential to CYT. Not only does CYT welcome parents to all aspects of our program, CYT requires parent involvement at a number of levels. First and foremost, CYT depends on parents to get their children to class, to rehearsals, and to shows on time and prepared.
CYT parents partner to help fulfill this dream of our kids!
If your child is cast in a show, there are three mandatory Parent Meetings (one during the first rehearsal, and one midway through the session and one the Sunday before show week) that will give you all the information you need for the weeks to come. Each cast member must have at least one parent (or representative 18 years or older) attend these meetings.
Likewise, at least one parent (or adult family representative) is required to be involved in preparing for the session production. CYT has found that “Parent Production Teams” are the best way to get the essential jobs done! You will actively serve on one of the many Parent Production Teams throughout preparation for the show and during the show. Working side by side enables families to share a common goal.
