OCEAN CITY, NJ — Ocean City Theatre Company has opened registration for its 2026 Summer Camp lineup, with programs in Ocean City for young performers across a wide range of ages and experience levels. The nonprofit said the camps will run throughout the summer and are designed for students from beginners trying the stage for the first time to more experienced young actors looking to build their skills.

Programs will include acting, singing, dancing, improvisation and full-scale musical productions led by teaching artists and industry professionals, according to the announcement. Campers also will have opportunities to perform for family and friends.
