TYT's Mission

Tacoma Youth Theatre is dedicated to creating high-quality theatre entirely produced by young artists. The company strives to build community by emphasizing core values of equity, self-esteem, empathy, responsibility, collaboration, creativity, and adaptability. Tacoma Youth Theatre provides professional expectations, resources, and mentors that lead young people through the exploration of multiple theatrical disciplines. This process works best in a nurturing, respectful atmosphere where unique individuals, ages 5-18, can discover the impact, success, and joy of theatre for themselves.

Why does TYT offer Pay What You Can Tuition?

We believe that equity is required to realize Tacoma Youth Theatre's Mission and the core values of self-esteem, empathy, responsibility, collaboration, creativity, and adaptability.

Pay What You Can Tuition is not free tuition.

All participants must pay either full tuition or a $20.00 registration fee before the camp begins to reserve your space in the camp. We then ask that families receiving Pay What You Can tuition to pay some portion of the tuition cost. The balance can be made up by setting a ticket fundraising goal for the remaining balance. We ask all families to participate in the ticket fundraising. Tickets are also Pay What You Can - we suggest a minimum of five dollars per ticket.
