CYPT Season Spotlight
This season Calgary Young People’s Theatre put Calgary’s creative youth in the spotlight! We had three very exciting plays that did just that!!!
On the Loose with Dr. Suess celebrated the 10 year partnership between the Calgary Public Library and CYPT. It was directed by Ethan Cole and toured around various libraries in November.
Raggedy Ann & Andy was preformed in the Vertigo Studio Theatre in December. The show was directed by Kristin Eveleigh. The cast had lots of fun together and worked very hard to bring this storybook adventure alive. A big thanks to the whole cast: Anastasia, Kate, Noah, Lisa, Amber, Jordan, Kieran, Lindsay, Jillian, Imogan, Rita, Liam, Larissa and a congratulations on a job well done!
The Daily Mischief, performed in February,was the World Premiere of a script written by Jason Long, a professional playwright and screenwriter!!! Jason has been part of the CYPT team as an instructor, director, board member and parent. We were very proud to bring his work to the stage for the very first time.It was directed by our Artistic Director Mat Mailandt. The whole cast: Vivian, Claren, Raya, Jocelyn, Brianna, Haley, Kieran, Imogen, Gabby, Carolyn, Lindsay and Kyle, did a fabulous job bringing this new work to life.
