Summer Conservatory Camps - Grades 2-12
Our most popular offering all year, Summer Conservatory camps are designed to be fun while teaching a plethora of theatre skills to students of various ages and experience levels. Mornings are spent exploring the core performance skills of movement, voice and improvisation with professional actors who are expert in these skills. In the afternoon, students focus on performance styles and theatrical design elements; classes include musical theatre, scene study, puppetry, costume design, make-up, and more.
Each session will end with a Showcase, which allows students to perform for friends and family. Parents will get a “snap shot” of the skills and performance styles our students have been learning.
Session I - It's a Classic
