Heights Youth Theatre runs HYTeens, a Broadway-style summer theatre camp for students in grades 5-12 held at Wiley Middle School, 2181 Miramar Blvd in University Heights. The camp meets Monday to Friday from 9am to 3pm across three weeks in July, rehearsing a full-scale junior musical (recently High School Musical Jr.) that campers perform for the community at the end of the session.

★★★★★LaylaI can't believe HYT still runs strong like this! Its running beautifully and I absolutely love being in every production I can!!! I LOVE U HYT FAMILY!!!
★★★★★Pamela V.I gave 5 stars based on my literal experience. That is, I wasn't there for any reason related to youth or theatre. I had no idea this was a theatre group and saw no signeage telling me as I came in. I went to this facility to donate blood. But in the short time I waited for my turn, I looked around the modern architecture that made me think of a summer arts camp: large beams, unique lighting, a very high barn-like ceiling with gables, and using conduit and plumbing as exterior design. In a rear corner were large plywood structures. Some had steps and handrails, and others had window-like holes. To me it looked like part of a set design for "Romeo and Juliet." I thought, this would be a great place for kids to have a performance. Shades of "Babes in Arms." (Has it been almost 100 years since that movie was made?) The venue was clean and airy and inviting. I felt calm and peaceful here and thought that I would plan to return. Now that I know its a theatre group I'll have more opportunities to look forward to.
★★★★★Pamela N.Actually, I was here because the Red Cross was collecting blood donations. As I waited to take my turn, I looked around and saw structures made out of plywood. One had steps leading up to a platform, which jutted out... like a balcony. I instantly thought of young people performing Romeo & Juliet. So, it seems it is possible. Break a leg.
★★★★★Jodi RichardsonWonderful experience for families and children participating!
★★★★Sharon CunaginThoroughly enjoyed the production of Wizard of Oz. However, I am admittedly biased as my granddaughter was a munchkin. I am in awe of the efforts and imagination of all the wonderful and patient organizers that worked so hard to present this classic. Bravo!
