July 27 @ 8:15 am – July 31 @ 3:00 pm
Give your young performer a week to shine at GTC’s Summer Theater Camp! This fun, supportive program introduces students to the fundamentals of theater through acting, music, dance, and improvisation. Campers will build confidence, creativity, and teamwork skills while working together on a short play and musical review. The week wraps up with a free showcase on Friday at 1pm for family and friends—plus a light celebration to recognize all their hard work!
What you’ll do (and love!) this week:
- Dance basics
- Music lessons
- Acting exercises
- Costume & set design
- Confidence building
- Quick thinking skills (improvisation)
Family discounts and scholarships are available to help make camp accessible to all.
