Summer Production Camps

ACT’s Summer Camps offer young performers the chance to spend their days creating, collaborating, and telling stories onstage. Whether your ACTor is stepping into theatre for the first time or ready to take their skills to the next level, our camps are designed to build confidence, creativity, and a love of performance; all while having a lot of fun.

Each camp culminates in a fully staged performance for family and friends.
