Scholarships

At PYT, it is our mission to make sure that theatrical education is affordable and accessible for all. We honor our Co-Founder, Ms. Erica Ascher, who passed away in 2021 after a courageous battle with Breast Cancer by continuing to offer opportunities for families with financial need. Through a combination of funds generously donated to the Erica Ascher Scholarship Fund for Young Actors, work study opportunities, and tuition forgiveness, we aim to find an artistic home at PYT for every child.

If financial constraints have been holding you back from pursuing a theater education for your child, please fill out the following form. Our scholarship committee, chaired by Ms. Erica’s daughter, Maryn Ascher, will make a determination based on funds available and will collaborate with PYT to come up with a financial package for students in need.
