County Limerick Youth Theatre (CoLYT) is a youth arts organisation that enables young people in County Limerick to engage with drama and theatre through weekly workshops, theatrical productions and regional and international collaboration.

Founded in 1996, CoLYT prides itself on supporting the social and personal development of its members by teaching theatre skills in a safe, comfortable and enjoyable environment.

CoLYT currently runs two age groups:
- a 13-18 year old group, which runs every Wednesday from 6pm to 8pm, and
- a 10-12 year old group (“DynaLYTs”), which runs every Wednesday from 5pm to 6pm.

County Limerick Youth Theatre is affiliated with Youth Theatre Ireland, and is supported by Limerick City and County Council.

Our commitment is to facilitate exceptional artistic development for young people in County Limerick.
