Christian Performance Theatre

Christian Performance Theatre Formerly known as CYT Wichita. Each session concludes with a showcase performance to demonstrate what they have learned. In the summer, we love our camps.

Christian Performance Theatre (CPT) is an after-school theatre arts program operating sessions in fall, winter and spring training participants in all aspects of the performing arts. Based on our foundational format, we aim our focus towards students ages 5-18 in voice, drama, dance, improvisation, musical theater and more. Ages 8-18 currently enrolled in the class session are welcome to audition for a Broadway-style production. Toward the end of each session, a fully-staged production is presented. Students choosing not to audition or if not cast, are encouraged to participate in the production by way of ushering, working backstage, assisting with props, or helping in the hair, makeup or technical areas. Parents also make a commitment to serve as a vital and active participant of the production by serving on production committees. Without the support of our parents, we could not offer the high quality production that has become a commitment and value of the organization. Camps mix together games, summer fun and opportunities for learning and growing in theatrical skills. At the end of a full week, we prepare for a showcase that entertains and brings smiles to family, friends and cast! CPT commits to the highest ethical, moral, technical and artistic standards of excellence. We are a family-oriented organization committed to provide entertaining activities centered around family. Instructors range from experienced professionals to qualified alumni with solid knowledge and skills in teaching and/or performing. These individuals must understand and agree with our mission statement, values, objectives and goals. All CPT staff strive to be excellent role models and live that life both on and off stage.

☂️ About the show:
One of the most popular Disney movies of all time is capturing hearts in a whole new way: as a practically perfect musical! Based on the books by P.L. Travers and the classic Walt Disney film, Cameron Mackintosh and Disney’s Mary Poppins delighted Broadway audiences for over 2,500 performances and received nominations for nine Olivier and seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

The jack-of-all trades, Bert, introduces us to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren’t the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that “Anything can happen if you let it.”

Brothers and sisters. CPT’s Mary Poppins cast includes several sibling pairs or groups. Did you know that sisters play the roles of Mrs. Banks and Jane? In addition to the siblings in the cast, some cast members have siblings assisting backstage and behind-the-scenes. Participating in a CPT show can be a wonderful family experience. 💙
