Founded in 2012, Rising Stars Productions is a performing arts initiative based in Reading, MA that seeks to inspire and empower young performers to grow in their love of the arts. The company is best known for its flagship program, Rising Stars Camp, a one-week summer musical theater intensive for students ages 10-18. Designed to highlight the wide range of talents among local youth and tailored to meet their needs, the camp program consists of selections from many different musicals, instead of a single show with a fixed cast. Campers rehearse daily with the Rising Stars staff to develop their singing, acting and dancing skills, while working toward a musical revue performance at the end of the week. The class and camp sizes are kept small so that our staff can devote time and attention to each camper, giving each one the skills and confidence he/she need to shine!

Grotonwood is a Christian camp and conference center in Groton, MA that has been serving youth, families, and adults with special needs for over 50 years. With its scenic location on the shores of Lost Lake and 250 acres of forested land, campers can enjoy a wide range of outdoor and creative activities while experience Christian fellowship and the beauty of God’s creation.
