Grades 4-6

Session 8, July 27-31, 2026

Put pen to page and present your original stories on stage! Collaborate with your Teaching Artist and classmates to write and perform in an original play. Through brainstorming and writing sessions and rehearsals, delve into the exciting process of creating characters, developing plots and crafting dialogue. Harness your storytelling skills and perform your group’s one-of-a-kind creation for an audience on the final day of camp.

These camps are geared towards students who want a faster paced "rehearsal & performance" experience. Classes will primarily emphasize acting, though other theatrical elements (playwriting, movement, auditioning, etc) may be included. 

Grades 7-12

Session 9, August 3-7 2026

Welcome to Tech Camp! This course gives students a hands-on introduction to Technical Theatre. In this camp, we’ll get our hands dirty while learning tool safety, painting techniques, Foley sound effects, and stage management. To prepare, please come to class dressed appropriately. Wear clothes you can move around in (no baggy clothing) and that can get messy or have paint on them. You must also wear closed-toe shoes—no Crocs or slip-ons. A great choice for teens with an interest in backstage work and fully rounding out their theatrical experience!

***Students should come to camp with a sack lunch and two extra snacks. For the safety of all students, we have a closed classroom policy. Adults are not permitted to sit in on JT camps until our invited Open Sharing on the final day of camp.***

Grades 5+

Journey into the world of heroes, gods, and legendary creatures as you bring timeless myths to life on stage!

Grades 7-12

Whether you’re an experienced actor or have always wanted to get on stage, this skill-building offering is your opportunity to audition, rehearse and perform in a one-act play! Classes will be spent auditioning, rehearsing, developing characters and strengthening your acting technique. The class will culminate in a shared performance of the play for friends and family.

Please note: There will be a video audition requirement prior to the start of this class, which will determine casting. Casting decisions are at the sole discretion of the Teaching Artist. The title of the play is TBD contingent upon enrollment numbers. Since class serves as rehearsal time, enrollment in this class is a commitment to regular attendance.

It’s a golden ticket for little actors with big imaginations!
