July Summer Camps

Ages 8 – 14

Monday–Friday | 9:00 AM–1:00 PM

ACT Academy’s one-week summer camps invite young artists to explore theatre through imagination, creativity, and collaboration. Each camp focuses on a different aspect of storytelling—from musical theatre performance to creating original plays.

Students spend the week learning new skills, working as an ensemble, and building confidence as performers and creators. Every camp culminates in a short sharing or performance for family and friends at the end of the week.
