Students will create their very own musical cabaret show. The ensemble will select songs, scenes  and monologues to present at the end of the session. Great for beginners and experienced performers. We will challenge your child with choreography, vocal production, singing technique and acting exercises that will help them grow individually and as an ensemble. Each actor will learn an audition monologue,  a solo song, and will receive a headshot session with Ms. Abbie and will be emailed a file with all photos taken. They will leave camp ready to go out and take the audition world by storm!

$350 for the 1-week session
Monday thru Friday, 9am-4pm
A final performance will be held at the end of the last day at 3pm!

At the Edge Theater each day is a new opportunity for adventure in this introduction to dramatic arts concentrating on imaginative play and collaborative work. In this program, we will be focusing primarily on imagination and creative movement. Students will learn how to express themselves artistically through movement and dance, acting games and creative dramatic exercises. They will learn how to work in a collaborative environment and will be introduced to essential theatrical skills such as vocal production and body awareness. This is a great introductory class that will give them the building blocks for future theatrical studies. A healthy snack is provided each day at 10:15am.
