DANCE

We’re Ambassadors of developing the student’s full potential.

THEATRE

We’re Ambassadors of wholesome entertainment.

The Y Arts Theatre Company is an in-house theatre company encompassing all ages (grade 3 - adult.) Each year, one large scale musical is chosen with our audience of families in mind. It features a live orchestra, full sets, costumes, and lighting in the Y’s state-of-the-art Performing Arts Center. Often reviewed by critics as “Broadway in Your Backyard,” our local professional, semi-professional, and amateur performers ignite the stage with excellence.

We’re Ambassadors of creating memorable opportunities.

The Y Arts Youth Theatre Company is an in-house theatre company dedicated to performers grades 3 - 12. Each year, one junior version musical is produced where all roles are played by children. With a production team consisting of the Y’s leading directors in the performing arts department, each musical features high quality singing, dancing, lighting, scenery, costumes, props, and more all showcased at the Carl Pfeifer Performing Arts Center – the Y’s stage!
