Winter Musical Theatre Camp
Throughout this weekend camp, students ages 14-19 will rehearse a selection of Broadway songs spanning a variety of classic shows, celebrated composers and lyricists. The camp will end with a showcase compiled of ensemble dance numbers, riveting group scenes and heartwarming solos.
Students will come together in the evenings for fun activities.
