If you are interested please consider the following questions:
• Do you have children’s theater experience?
• Is your community large enough to support a CYT program (usually 50,000 or more population)?
• Do you know at least 50 local families with children who are interested in being involved with CYT?
• Do you know at least 5 community leaders who would be willing to sit on your CYT Board of Directors?
If you can answer “yes” to all of the above, consider bringing CYT to your community!
Talk to us. We would like to know the basics, so please fill out the Start-Up Request Form
Our office will send you a Start-Up Packet, complete with details about funding, staffing, site visits, paperwork, and legal requirements. After reading through the information, you can decide if you wish to fill out the official application. The entire process can be expected to take 6 months to a year to complete.

CYT-USA has over 19 CYT programs, in 15 different states, operating in over 40 different venues. CYT-USA has the constant support of nearly 30 years of consistent children’s theater experience from CYT Headquarters in the San Diego area. Each program is a 501(c)(3) educational, non-profit organization, headed by an Artistic Director and Managing Staff, and is overseen by its own Board of Directors. Each program is solely responsible for the welfare of its own program.
