SUMMER THEATRE CAMP 2009
Presented by The Performance Project School of the Arts
Click here to see VIDEO about Summer Camp!
This unique summer camp program is designed to spark interest in the theater arts, sharpen performance skills and develop self-confidence in the campers. During each four-week session, campers are exposed to all facets of the performing arts business, and their studies culminate in a live show performance in a professional setting. Though we urge campers to work hard, refine their talents and strive for success, we also stress the importance of empathy, respect, and strong friendships, leaving campers with the sense that they’ve become part of a true “theater family.”
