Junior Theater Camp
Junior Theater Camp is a fun, imaginative, and welcoming introduction to the world of theater for children in Kindergarten through 4th grade. Campers will explore storytelling through creative drama, movement, music, and play, building confidence and creativity in a supportive, age-appropriate environment.
Each day, students will engage in theater games, character exploration, imaginative movement, and simple performance activities designed to encourage self-expression and collaboration. Through guided improvisation and group storytelling, campers learn how to work as an ensemble while developing communication skills, focus, and empathy.
The camp culminates in a casual, joy-filled sharing for families, where campers show what they’ve created together — celebrating imagination over perfection. No prior theater experience is necessary — just curiosity and a willingness to play!
