2026–2027 • Celebrating Our 20th Season
Young Artists. Inspiring Performances. A Community Connected Through Dance.
For twenty seasons, Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre has helped young dancers bring their training to life onstage while sharing the joy of ballet with the Grand Strand.
Join us as we celebrate the dancers, families, volunteers, and supporters who make every performance possible—and help us create opportunities for the next generation.
Celebrate the Holidays with The Nutcracker
A holiday tradition. A new season of wonder.
Join Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre for the magic of The Nutcracker at Main Street Theatre in historic downtown Conway.
Follow Clara from a festive Christmas Eve party into an extraordinary adventure filled with a daring battle, swirling snowflakes, and the enchanting Land of Sweets. Set to Tchaikovsky’s beloved music, this holiday classic comes to life through colorful costumes, vibrant digital scenery, and the artistry of young dancers and professional guest artists.
Whether you are discovering ballet for the first time or returning to a favorite family tradition, we look forward to welcoming you.
Ten performances November 27 to December 13

COASTAL YOUTH BALLET THEATRE
Our Impact
Growing through dance. Bringing our community together.
Every dancer brings a different story to Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre. Some are stepping onto the stage for the first time; others are taking on more demanding roles and discovering new possibilities for their future.
Through rehearsals and performances, our dancers learn to persevere, support one another, and take pride in what they accomplish together. They develop confidence, responsibility, and artistry while experiencing the joy of sharing their work with an audience.
As the performing company of Coastal Dance Centre, CYBT connects classroom training with the experience of live theater. Our productions also bring families, volunteers, artists, and audiences together through a shared love of the arts.
Your support helps sustain these opportunities for our dancers and the community they serve.
With heartfelt gratitude to our sponsors, whose generosity supports our young dancers and helps bring the beauty of ballet to our community
Coastal Youth Ballet Theatre is funded in part by the South Carolina Arts Commission which receives support from the National Endowment for the Arts.
