CYT on Sabbatical in 2022

​Since 2007, Carolina Youth Theatre has provided a consistent artistic outlet for students. We will be on sabbatical beginning Nov. 1, 2021, and taking a break from our regular programming in 2022. We look forward to sharing an update about what’s next toward the end of 2022. In the meantime and as always, thank you for your patronage and support.
