Young Performers Theater Camp

 

 

 

PROGRAM

We can only offer one combined musical theatre production this summer  at Venice Island Performing Arts Center, located at 7 Lock Street, 19127, on the Schuylkill River in the Manayunk section of Philadelphia.  We are scheduled to have live performances on August 8th & 9th, 2024.

 This is a great opportunity for young performers to rehearse and perform in a professional space.  

Also, please note that we are unable to provide bus transportation this summer -- so your camper(s) would need to navigate their way to and from Venice Island theatre.

 

CAMP DATES & TIMES

The camp will start Monday July 1st  (no camp on 7/4 or 7/5),  and then run weekdays through Friday, August 9, 2024.     Camp begins promptly at 9am and continues until 2pm.   We expect all cast members to be on time.  

 

CAMP FEES

The registration & tuition for the six week encampment is $300.      Returning campers need not audition.   First year camper families will be notified of audition dates where the candidate must sing acapella and read/act out a short text of their choosing.    This may be done via zoom or in person.    We also require a copy of their birth certificate and  a letter of recommendation from a non-relative teacher, neighbor, mentor, etc., who believes a performing arts camp would be a great fit for the camper.      Returning campers need not audition.
