About CCT Baton Rouge


CYT Baton Rouge has opened a new community theater program called Christian Community Theater (CCT Baton Rouge). CCT Baton Rouge produces one full-length, Broadway style musical each year.

Christian Community Theater is a program of CYT that allows adults to have the same positive, uplifting theatre experience that our youth students have. CCT upholds the same values as CYT.

If you would like to support Christian Community Theater, please go to our "Donate" page and learn about our Standing O Society which offers both personal and business sponsorship opportunities.
