“Each year we have three age groups which have daily classes in vocal music, dance, and acting,” explained Artistic Director Jesse Cline. “During the latter part of the day camp, all three age groups work together in putting a show together which is seen by family and friends the final evening of the camp’s two-week session.”

“Our youth project, which includes rehearsing and performing in an entire two-act musical, is a unique theatrical experience as well,” Cline said. “This year, the full-length musical with a youth cast is “Fiddler On The Roof”, which is one of the most beloved shows of all-time.”

The camps begin June 16, continuing for ten weeks. Cline continued, “The campers create their own small scenes in the acting classes. Broadway music and choreography is added to the scene work and a world premiere show is created every two weeks. It’s a fun way for young actors to learn.”
