Winter Camp Registration is Open!

CYT has camp offerings throughout the year for students ages 3-18. Camps are designed to be a fun and energetic immersion into the world of musical theater. Camps are jam-packed with games, activities, and interactive workshops that build performance skills, self-confidence, and teamwork. Typical camps include team competitions; rotations through drama, dance, music, and behind the scenes workshops; and a concluding showcase for family and friends.

Winter Break Camp | December 30 - January 3rd | Age 8-13

Welcome to the most deliciously delightful winter break experience in town! At The Great Holiday Bake Off, young bakers and performers alike will step into the magical holiday kitchen to create their own winter wonderland on stage. Guided by our cast of kooky, cheerful elves, the kids will sing, dance, and act their way through a heartwarming story of teamwork, holiday spirit, and a little baking magic. Along the way, they’ll learn skills in acting, singing, movement, and stagecraft, making new friends and memories to last a lifetime. Join us for a week filled with holiday fun as campers rehearse and perform songs from musicals like Mary Poppins, Frozen, Annie, and more!

10 Minute Play Festival | December 30 | Age 13-18

Challenge your creativity as you race the clock to rehearse and perform a series of student directed 10 minute plays in only 12 hours! Participants age 13-18 will submit a video audition and be cast in a short play a few days prior to the festival. Participants age 16-18 can apply to be a director, and if selected, will attend the director's meeting and be guided through the casting process by the festival director. Actors and directors will come together on the day of the festival for 12 hours to rehearse, block, costume, tech, and mount their show for the public performance that evening!

Camp Showcase

Friday night after day camp, students perform in a showcase they have rehearsed during their fun-filled time at camp. Parents get to come watch their kids perform the material they have learned in just one short week. Showcase is a celebration of the week’s work and gives kids a glimpse into the energy and excitement of being part of a full CYT production.

Camp Counselors

CYT Dallas is seeking highly skilled and motivated Summer Camp counselors to lead students in week-long camps! Camp Counselors lead children through a variety of activities including acting, singing, dancing, improv, music, crafts, and more. Camp counselors embody the heart and spirit of the CYT Brand!

Camp Policies

Refund Policy
We are unable to provide refunds for camp registrations. If a conflict arises with your previously made camp registration, email shannon@cytdallas.org about the possibility of a CYT credit.

Late Fee
Due to the fact that we rent our facilities, we are unable to provide before or aftercare. There is a $50 late fee for campers picked up past 3:15 pm.

Age Policy
Campers must turn the eligibility age by the Monday of the camp they wish to attend. For example, a camper must be at least five years old by the Monday of camp in order to attend camp.

Potty Trained
All campers must be potty trained to attend camp.

Allergy Alerts
If there is a food allergy at camp, all families will be alerted and asked not to bring in that allergen. Please email camp@cytdallas.org to let us know.

Diverse Abilities, Special or Specific Needs
CYT openly welcomes all children. If your child can function in a group/class setting but needs extra help or attention, our counselors will work alongside them to ensure they have a phenomenal camp experience. After you register, you will receive a confirmation email with a form asking for more info about how to serve your child best. Please fill that out and email camp@cytdallas.org to explain any special or specific needs your child has - the more info we have, the better! That information is shared only with your child’s counselors so they can help your child have a fun and successful week of camp. If your child requires one-on-one attention and assistance, we require a family member to stay at camp. CYT is unable to provide personal aides for campers. 

Christian Youth Theater
Christian Youth Theater develops Christ-like character and creativity in kids through quality theater arts training that brings families and communities together while reflecting Jesus. We welcome all kids of varying faiths, backgrounds, and beliefs.
