PYT’s SPRING MUSICAL!

Students enrolled in acting, vocal, dance (or any combination of the three disciplines) are eligible to take part in our spring musical, Into the Woods. Both our Juniors (elementary/middle school) and Seniors (high school) will be performing this title, but in separate, age-appropriate productions. Please note that eighth grade students may choose to audition for either the Junior Show or the Senior Show. Our Juniors will be performing an abridged version of the musical and our seniors will be performing the full version. The musicals are offered as separate classes from our technique classes. Students must be enrolled in a technique class in order to participate in the spring musical. Please see information below about each show:
