Valley Youth Theatre

Valley Youth Theatre (VYT) is a community theatre located in Phoenix, Arizona, United States. Established in 1989, VYT produces six mainstage shows each season, two of which are produced at the Herberger Theater Center.[1][2][3]

An old storefront was gutted in 1998 and rebuilt to include a 30-foot-wide (9.1 m) proscenium stage with orchestra pit, 202-seat continental-style audience seating, a lobby with box office, and "backstage" areas: a lighting and sound booth, small scene and costume shops, and rehearsal and dressing rooms.[1]
