Winter 2025 Class Registration is Now Open!

National Youth Theater is known for providing high-quality theater education. Their instructors are experienced professionals, which ensures that students receive the highest level of training and guidance. Whether you’re a beginner or have some theater experience, NYT classes are designed to help you develop your acting, singing, dancing, and overall performance skills. All NYT programs culminate in an end-of-session showcase, which gives students the chance to apply what they’ve learned in front of an audience, gaining real-world experience and building confidence on stage! We know that performing on stage can be nerve-wracking, but it’s also an effective way to build confidence and overcome stage fright. NYT’s supportive environment and experienced instructors can help you grow as a performer and an individual.

All classes will take place on Monday nights beginning January 6th, 2025 through March 10th, 2025 at Harbor Rock Tabernacle in Racine, Wisconsin. Class will culminate in a short showcase on Monday, March 10th, where all students will get the chance to show what they’ve learned in front of family and friends! Showcase time and other details TBD.

Class cost is $40 per month ($120 total), and will be automatically billed to the primary payment method on your account on January 6th, February 3rd, and March 3rd.

Interested in doing a class AND a show? Bundle the two for $250 total (a $280 value)! Please note that this discount may not show up immediately within Jackrabbit, but will be applied prior to payment processing.
