Typical camp day: Your camper will spend their week working toward the preparation of a Musical Revue based on each camp’s specific theme. The campers begin each day with a full warm-up, ensuring that their body and voice is ready to face the day. From there, campers break off into two age groups singing new songs and learning original choreography for their big musical revue. View a sample camp schedule.
Behind the scenes work: 3rd - 6th grade students will write and direct their own script for the show, while K-2nd grade campers will make crafts that will be featured in the revue. For your convenience, the revue will be filmed in the studio and then emailed to you each week via YouTube Video.
In addition to the performing arts, your camper will also get to unleash their crafty side. All campers will design crafts and projects throughout the day themed to our week at camp.
Our camp is popular for beginners and more seasoned performers, alike, and each camp week is geared toward a specific theme. Each camp has something different to offer, so sign up for one, two, or all twelve!
