We’re excited to welcome back PYT Owner and DRAMA Educator: Katrina Patient.

KATRINA PATIENT

Katrina has been involved in all facets of the performing arts since she can remember. Growing up as a dancer led her to finding herself on stage in her theatre arts classes. Katrina has performed in numerous productions as a singer, actor, and dancer.

Katrina completed her Bachelor of Education and has worked as a primary school teacher, specialising in music and drama, since 2006.

Her passion is finding the place for the performing arts in the primary school classroom and promoting the notion that the arts should be considered just as important as all other learning areas. Katrina was an integral part of creating the revolutionary arts program at Bold Park Community School and was a specialist Drama teacher, Arts, Marketing, and Events Coordinator for the school until 2016.

Katrina joined her now husband Trevor at Perth Youth Theatre (PYT) in 2008 and is the Director of the Term-Time Classes and the School Holiday Season Shows.  The immensely successful PYT stages up to 10 School Holiday Season Shows every year. Many past students from PYT have gone on to perform live on-stage in Platinum Entertainment Productions, further their studies at reputable performing arts institutions, or are working in the industry in all areas that the arts and entertainment sector has to offer!

PYT Juniors & SENIORS: We welcome back: Musical theatre teacher & Choreographer: MADDY BATTEN

Maddy has been a performer for as long as she can remember. Her outstanding vocals, dance ability and acting skills have earned her multiple awards throughout the years including ‘Most Outstanding Vocal Talent’ ‘Best Actress’ and was the Third Annual Karlee Award Winner for her dedication and leadership within the performing arts. Maddy’s leadership skills awarded her the chance to be Arts Captain for her high school, which offered multiple opportunities to design, choreograph and co-produce many performances and productions for all of the year levels in her school. More recently, Maddy has been choreographer on multiple Perth Youth Theatre holiday theatre schools and has a wide understanding of the world of theatre having performed in and or been on the costume team for over 10 productions in PYT and Platinum Entertainment. She is excited to challenge the seniors with some modern musical theatre hits like SIX, HAMILTON, MEAN GIRLS, songs from GLEE and DEAR EVAN HANSEN to name a few. Let’s do this!

Trial classes: We do not offer these for various reasons:

New performers in an established group can change the dynamic of the class 

In our experience a lot can be gained from more than one class:

• Relationships can grow between fellow class mates and educators

• Resilience can be developed over a period of time

• Team-work is fostered with the same group of people from week week

In the words of Maggie Dent - it's important to 'nurture a spark'. We encourage families to make a commitment for one term at a time.

This encourages resilience | work-ethic | passion | drive | grit | empathy | dedication | relationship

Thank you for your understanding:)
