The Milwaukee Youth Theatre (MYT) is a theatre company for youth based in

Milwaukee, Wisconsin
.

Founded by Peter Daniels in 1991, MYT began in a small storefront theatre in the

Eastside of Milwaukee to become a part of the nationally recognized Resident Artist Program at Lincoln Center for the Arts, an arts-focused middle school in the Milwaukee Public School
system. In January, 2022 Harmonie Baker became Executive Director.

Each year MYT produces at least two public theatrical productions, accompanying tours to Milwaukee-area schools, and a variety of workshops. Milwaukee Youth Theatre provides many kids' their first chance to perform onstage and involves students in all aspects of production including costume design, set design, property management, stage management, direction, sound design, lighting as well as acting. MYT uses no adult actors and involves students ages 8-18 at no cost regardless of previous theatre experience.
