Our camps explore the many aspects of theatre and art, all inspired by a weekly theme. Campers embark on creative journeys that spark their imaginations. Camps focus on teaching the creative process through games, movement, storyboarding, art projects, music, film and more. Campers engage in all aspects of the creative process. Our talented staff nurtures individual campers as they collaborate in group settings. Although there is down-time for campers, there is never a dull moment!
Each weekly camp culminates with a performance or art gallery installation, leaving the campers with a final work of art to share with family and friends, and great memories that will last a lifetime.
