Superior Arts Youth Theater
Description:
Superior Arts Youth Theater (SAYT) encompasses a long history of theater for youth in Marquette. Formerly known as the Marquette Arts and Culture Center Youth Theatre (2001-2011) and Lake Superior Youth Theatre (2011-2015), we have now formed our own 501(c)3 tax exempt organization. Located in Marquette, Michigan, SAYT serves the central Upper Peninsula of Michigan and is open to youth ages 3-18 years. SAYT produces a series of performances each year ranging from variety shows and community events performances to full productions at the historic Kaufman Auditorium, Northern Michigan University’s Forest Roberts Theater, and the Lake Superior Theater Boat House.
REGISTRATION FEES
Although some of SAYT’s funding comes from grants and ticket sales, the registration fee helps defray production costs including renting the rehearsal and performance space, buying scripts, securing performance rights, hiring support staff, and all the physical needs of the show (costume pieces, makeup, props, and set materials).
Musical — $150
Play — $100
Summer Camp — $75
Financial aid is available for all SAYT programming. We evaluate need based on the Michigan Income Eligibility Guidelines for free and reduced lunch. Contact Jalina McClain at saytheater.directors@gmail.com for more information.
