Day camp for boys and girls in the heart of New York City
Let’s create together!
Led by a team of professional teaching artists, Drama Camp is an enriching performing arts experience for boys and girls who have a passion for musical theater and drama. The program is structured to provide an introduction to the craft of performance or a more intensive study for those students with more experience. Campers are divided according to age and ability and focus on acting, dance, and singing with specialty classes offered in theater history, playwriting, directing, and costume design.
Drama Camp 1 (Rising 2-3), Drama Camp 2 (Rising 4-5):
Drama Camp requires a three-week enrollment (weeks 3, 4, and 5) and will culminate in a fully realized musical theater performance. Taught by professional teaching artists, the program focuses on acting, singing, and dancing with specialty classes in design and writing. The final performance will be held during the last week of camp.
Advanced Drama Camp (Rising 6-8):
The Advanced Drama Camp for rising 6th-8th graders is an intensive study of musical theater performance taught by professional teaching artists. This camp requires a three-week commitment (including weeks 3, 4, and 5) and culminates in a fully realized musical theater performance. Advanced classes in scene study, musical theater singing, and Broadway dance are taught alongside specialty classes in design and writing. Auditions will be held for the final show during the first week of camp and the final performance will take place during the last week of camp.
