San Diego Junior Theatre is thrilled to announce the title for its Summer Conservatory Acting Camp: THE COMEDY OF ERRORS. This is Shakespeare’s earliest comedy and, at 1,786 lines, the shortest of all his surviving plays. COMEDY is the only play apart from The Tempest to observe the classical convention of setting action in a single location over a single day. Students will learn advanced methods of approaching Shakespeare’s text and culminate in a final performance for friends and family!

This line-up will celebrate the works of female composers, playwrights, directors and choreographers. Come be a trailblazer! Shows such as In the Heights (Quiara Alegría Hudes), Frozen (Kristen Anderson-Lopez). Let’s hear it for the girls!

Musical Theatre Specialty; The stage is alive with rhythm the Beat! Bring to life the musical worlds of West Side Story, In the Heights, Head Over Heels, and more. This musical theatre class combines voice and movement with acting to perform the best syncopated Broadway hits!

What keeps you up at night? Monsters and ghoulies come in all shapes, plays, and songs as students explore theatre concepts that feature creatures from musicals and plays such as Shrek, Beauty and the Beast, The Addams Family, and Goosebumps!

Who’s in your ride-or-die squad? What kind of friend are you? Fair weather? True? Imaginary? These stories of friends (and “frenemies”) will explore the many facets of friendship. Young artists will explore the concepts of collaboration and friendship through a variety of theatre games and exercises featuring work from musicals and stories such as West Side Story, Mean Girls, Wicked, and Annie.

Join us as we celebrate the original Drama Queens and Kings with a tribute to the Greeks! We will act, sing and dance through the pages of musicals like The Lightning Thief, Hercules, and Hadestown. The OG storytellers of comedy and tragedy will guide students through theatre games and scenes that will give them a better understanding of the origins of myth and magic.
