SUPPORT OUR WORK TODAY and help us continue to provide young people with hands-on opportunities that stimulate:

Creativity
Self-esteem and resiliency
Expanded horizons
A strong sense of community
Reflection on what it means to be an active, engaged citizen in society and an artist
Social Awareness and activism through theatre

In addition to our weekly sessions, we take an annual camping trip, create original shows, facilitate opportunities for members to work with Applied Theatre graduate students and academic professionals under the CUNY umbrella, and collaborate with members to create events based on their requests.

After school and summer youth theatre programs all over the city charge hundreds of dollars to participate. We provide FREE programming throughout the school year - and we can’t do it without your help! Each donation no matter how small or large has an impact on our programs.

Youth Theatre members created, directed, filmed, edited & presented 5 short films...in only TWO days!

Arts programs have been shown to improve young peoples’ well-being and confidence in academics, social settings, work, and beyond - yet funding for them is being cut at an alarming rate. It is our goal to continue to provide quality programming that is free for participants - even as arts programs across the city charge hundreds of dollars per semester.

Help us continue this work by streaming our short film bonanza for a donation today.
Pop some popcorn, get comfy and enjoy!

Some highlights from the recent collaboration between the Youth Theatre and MA in Applied Theatre during our Playbuilding weekend! Grad students and Youth Theatre members create original scenes using devising techniques the Grad students have been developing all semester and the experience of the young people who create with those techniques weekly. It’s an incredible two days for our communities to work together!

Last November, Kevin James Anthony passed. He was a dear friend and colleague to many in the CAT Community for over 30 years, touching countless lives in significant ways. Kevin worked at CAT in several different capacities, including working on every CAT Youth Theatre February Show since 1996. People loved him: his heart, his warmth, his humor, his spirit. He cared deeply about his colleagues and was passionately invested in the young people he worked with.

We hope you will join us to honor his memory and celebrate his life. Come and gather with our community as we reflect on how lucky we were to share space with him.

We are aware that contact information changes - if you are in touch with other people who knew Kevin, please please pass this on to them - we would like as many people as possible to know about it!
