Curious about performing and creating a small show this summer! Whether you’re a budding actor, curious about the stage, or want to see how creating drama works, our Drama Summer Camp offers a fun, supportive space to explore your creativity. We will try some drama games, improvisation, and stagecraft — all while working toward an exciting final performance for friends and family. Let’s see if we can create a new piece of theatre. No experience needed — just bring your imagination and enthusiasm!
