The first PYT Alumni Cabaret was a huge success! More than 250 people came to the event, which was held at the King's Academy Theatre.

The night featured performances by alums who have been involved through all of PYT's past fifteen years.

The board would like to thank Stephanie Ringstaff for her dedication and hard work to make this wonderful event possible.

If you are or know a PYT alum who would be interested in participating in our new alumni association, email pyt_alumni@yahoo.com.

Tickets are still available for the closing weekend of PYT's production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, playing through Sunday at the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts.

Featuring dazzling music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice, Joseph is sure to be a hit with the whole family!
