This premiere Musical Theater camp offers daily workshops in the three essential components of musical theater - acting, singing, and dancing. Students will be taught by working Broadway professionals who have been in the Broadway or National companies of shows such as: West Side Story, The Producer, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, Big River, Meet Me In St. Louis, Cats, Pippin, Anything Goes, Shrek, and Ghost.
Curriculum includes ensemble work, scene study, vocal instruction, audition techniques, and dance workshops for all levels, from beginner to advanced.

In addition, special workshops geared towards helping students audition for colleges and universities will be conducted throughout the week.
