Program Details
Our camp program is an excellent opportunity for students with any level of acting experience. In a fun, high-energy environment, we help students build self- confidence while learning from working professionals in the theater and film industries, and making new friends.
This year, each session will have a theme, which will inspire the week’s activities. We’ll cover the same fundamental skills in each session, but will apply those skills to different, theme-related material and workshops, providing a complete educational experience, whether attending one session or multiple weeks.
Multi-week and returning campers will meet new creative challenges throughout the summer. All activities are designed to provide an excellent overview of a wide variety of theater disciplines and skills. Sign up for just one session or take advantage of the multiple week discount.
All of our young actors will participate in a performance piece for families and friends on the Friday of each camp session – in Mason’s professional TheaterSpace!
Each one-week session runs
Monday through Friday
NEW THIS YEAR – EXPANDED HOURS! 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
