About PGT

PGT Office

The Play Group Theatre for Children and Young Adults is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing actor training and diverse performance opportunities for children and teenagers.

Since PGT's first class offered in 1994, we have grown to include a variety of teachers and disciplines for every age, within each season. And since PGT's first production in 1995, we have grown to include a variety of directors with up to four shows in one season.

Past productions include:

Little Shop of Horrors
The American stage premiere of Lord of the Flies
Pippin
The Childrens Hour
The Phantom Tollbooth
Once On This Island
and Into The Woods, among others.
For a full list of PGT shows see our PGT Seasons of Love page.

PGT has also produced three original musicals, written by members of the PGT artistic staff.

PGT Summer Theatre is a six week summer theatre intensive, which includes classes, rehearsals, performances, and lots of creative, zany activities! Summer theatre is the perfect option for young actors who are ready to immerse themselves completely in the performing arts.

Actor training classes cover a variety of disciplines including Acting Technique, Musical Theatre, Rehearsal Technique, Masks, Movement/Dance and Theatre Skills.

PGT is in the midst of its ninth season of the Outreach Program, which brings after-school theatre classes into the schools of Westchester. If your child's school does not currently offer theatre classes, have someone contact the PGT office to find out more about this program.
