ABOUT US
OUR MISSION
City Youth Theater is a not-for-profit theater organization dedicated to promoting the theatrical development of all participants. Participants are given a wide range of opportunities to cultivate and enhance their talents in front of an audience and behind the scenes. This is accomplished in an encouraging, stimulating, and supportive environment culminating in a theatrical production.
City Youth Theater/City Stage Company is a dynamic program dedicated to nurturing the creative talents of high school, middle, and elementary school students in Waterbury, Connecticut. Our mission is to foster artistic collaboration, build a strong work ethic, and provide students with opportunities to excel both on stage and in life. Through a diverse range of theater classes, workshops, summer camps, and productions, City Youth Theater/City Stage Company equips students with invaluable skills that transcend the stage, preparing them for success in any endeavor they pursue.
We are committed to empowering young artists to reach their full potential. By emphasizing collaboration and instilling a disciplined work ethic, we ensure that our students develop critical skills that apply far beyond theater. The techniques they learn prepare them for the challenges and opportunities they may encounter in a rapidly evolving world.
City Youth Theater/City Stage Company relies on the generous support of donors to sustain our programs and initiatives. Ongoing donations allow us to provide scholarships, acquire resources, and maintain our commitment to excellence in arts education. We are deeply grateful for the continued support from our community, which enables us to inspire the next generation of artists and leaders.
