ABOUT US
Our Mandate
Yukon Theatre for Young People is the Yukon's newest theatre company. Youth-driven, and providing performance, technical and production opportunities, YTYP is focussed on delivering professional mentorship for youth in the theatre arts.
On Stage
Our company uses youth performers in all of its presentations, and selects shows based on consultation with our youth steering committee. Young people 13 to 17 (entering or currently in high school) are welcome to audition for any role, and anyone interested in joining the company will not be turned away, provided they sign a performance contract and meet the outlined expectations.
Backstage
Not interested in being onstage? We have excellent mentorship opportunities for youth who want to learn more about production. Consider applying to our mentorship program (offered in conjunction with the Yukon Arts Centre), and learn the skills needed to work in lighting, audio, set design, prop building, costumes and more.
