TYA, Neighbor

The purpose of the Trumbull Youth Association (TYA) is to assist in the social and cultural development of the youth of Trumbull by providing meaningful recreational and educational programs to foster a spirit of civic responsibility. TYA is an organization designed, maintained and managed by youth.

The summer musical program was created in 1969 to serve three purposes: to provide a meaningful summer activity for youth; to earn funds to support the TYA program; and to provide a first hand opportunity to learn about theater and the business aspects of producing a major Broadway play.
