Full-scale musical theater productions take place bi-annually in the spring and fall. With the guidance of a full creative and technical team, students will go through the entire production process--from audition to opening night. Throughout the production process, students will have the fundamentals of musical theater performance reinforced through real-life application of acting, dance, and voice performance. In addition to having access to the creative and technical resources of a professional production company, all YAS! productions are accompanied live by the PMT Band.

"How To Eat Like a Child" History
Making its television premiere on Tuesday, September 22, 1981, HOW TO EAT LIKE A CHILD aired as one of NBC's "Project Peacock" children's specials, the first series of prime-time specials for youngsters and their families on network television and was billed as "a look at the manners, language, and logic of adults in training.
After the television premiere of HOW TO EAT LIKE A CHILD, the musical was subsequently adapted for the stage as a one-act musical revue performed exclusively by children, using songs from the original NBC special. The first theatrical production was produced in New York City in 1984. As the original NBC production had used the child performers' real names (essentially crediting each child as portraying "himself" or "herself"), subsequent theatrical productions would continue to use the names of the original NBC players as the young characters' names in the stage adaptation.
Some of the lessons taught include:
| "How to Stay Home from School"
| "How to Beg for a Dog"
| "How to Act After Being Sent to Your Room"
| "How to Go to Bed"
