You are here: On Stage How It Works Parental

Parent

Parents of YPT Cast Members have their own role to play around each production. It takes a village to put on a show and there are many advantages to getting involved. Parents say:

I love the thrill of being part of putting together such an amazing stage production.

It is great to be involved where my child is also involved... I get the chance to see what he/she is doing and who new friends are.

I love being able to make new friends around activities, too.

I enjoy supporting something that provides a creative and safe place for kids to hang out!

It's really fun!
