About Rainbow

 

Rainbow Youth Theatre is a volunteer based community theatre group located in the Comox Valley of British Columbia, Canada. RYT is registered as a non-profit organization under the Society Act of BC.

Through the combined effort of its members and volunteers, Rainbow Youth Theatre mounts at least three productions each year. These productions are dramatic or musical in nature and involve large casts with opportunities for actors of all ages and theatrical experience. RYT makes a genuine effort to find a suitable part for every child or youth who auditions for one of our productions.

MISSION STATEMENT

Rainbow's purpose is to enable children and youth to gain confidence, artistic skill, and friendships through theatre.
