SUMMER YOUTH THEATER DAY CAMP OF THE ARTS
Princess and the Frog
From reading script to making dreams come true!
⸻
CAMP DESCRIPTION
Our Summer Youth Theater Day Camp of the Arts is a dynamic, performance-based experience designed to inspire creativity, confidence, leadership, and lifelong memories through the power of theater, music, dance, and media arts.
Taught by experienced theater professionals and artists, this camp creates the footprints of time in the hearts of its participants. Every child is encouraged to shine, grow, and discover their unique gifts in a nurturing and empowering environment. Most importantly, every youth participant gets the opportunity to perform and participate in the roles of their choice.
This is not simply a classroom camp — it is a true live performance experience. Every summer, youth organizations and visiting camps attend field trips specifically to watch our young performers in action. Campers participate in daily productions and presentations that allow them to experience the excitement, discipline, and joy of live theater before real audiences.
Over the course of the program, youth rehearse scenes, songs, choreography, and theatrical productions inspired by Princess and the Frog while building confidence both on stage and behind the scenes.
