Information about PYT’s Summer Camp
The Basics
Programming is available for students in second grade through twelfth grade (as of 9/25). Students will be leveled in technique classes according to age, ability, and experience.
Camp will run from Monday, June 30th through Friday, July 25th at our beautiful theater and classroom space located in the heart of Long Beach at 75 E. Walnut Street. Students will be off on July 4th.
Camp hours are 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM on weekdays. On performance days during the last week of camp (Thursday, 7/24 and Friday, 7/25), students may start and end later in the day. Early-care and After-care options are available throughout the summer (see below).
Our ScheduleThe first half of a typical day (9:30 AM to 12:00 PM) will be dedicated to working on acting technique, vocal development, musical theater dance training, and a variety of special topics designed to pique our students’ interest in the arts.
After a lunch break, the second portion of the day (12:45 - 4:00 PM) will serve as rehearsal for our full-length musical, Grease, which will be presented at the end of the summer.
Broadway guest artists will be invited to workshop with our students throughout the summer.
Our Show
Our culminating mainstage performances of Grease will take place on Thursday, July 24th and Friday, July 25th in the beautifully renovated PYT Ballroom Theatre located right on our premises in the heart of Long Beach.
Our Faculty
As you've come to expect from PYT, our faculty is comprised of top professionals from NYC's theater scene. That's what the 'P' in our name stands for! While not all of our students will choose to pursue a career in theater, we feel every student deserves to graduate from our program prepared to do so if he or she chooses. Your child's teachers are more than just theater enthusiasts--they are true, vetted professionals and will provide every student with unparalleled insight into the theatrical world. Whether your child is learning choreography from a Broadway cast member, mastering a monologue, or studying vocals with an accredited operatic coach, we are committed to the highest caliber of training!
Tuition
PYT continues to be one of the most affordable performing arts camp options in our area because it is our philosophy that all children deserve a high-quality education in the arts! Tuition is $2500. A $500 deposit is due at registration to hold your child’s spot in the program. All discounts will be applied to your balance which will be due in full on or before April 1, 2025. For those who register after April 1st, your balance will be due within 30 days of initial registration. Deposits and tuition are non-refundable and non-transferrable.

Cash Discount - Families paying in cash will receive 3% off.
Referral Discount - We like to invest in the quality of our program (rather than expensive marketing tactics), so word-of-mouth is how our company has grown! If you plan to tell a friend about our program, please email us to find out how our referral discount program works.
Add-on Options and Additional FeesLunch Option - For an additional charge of $285, students will be provided with daily lunch options from local, reputable restaurants throughout the summer. Students are not required to sign up for this option and may choose to bring their own bagged lunch instead. Water and snacks will be available on the premises for purchase, as well.
Early-Care and After-Care - Early-Care (8:00 - 9:30 AM or earlier if needed) and After-Care (4:00 PM and on) are available. The cost per child is $15 per hour.
Extra Fees - We aim to be completely transparent about all extra fees. There will be a $25 per child script fee charged by Concord Theatricals (the show licensing company), but students will be permitted to keep their scripts. Parents will be billed for costumes at the end of the summer and will be charged no more than $60 total. Students will be permitted to keep all costumes, and PYT will hold fundraisers during the summer to reduce the total charged to parents. In previous years, our fundraising committee did a tremendous job and costumes were completely free to our families! Tickets for our musical are $30 each for guests who would like to attend.Signing Up
