Our Summer Theatre Workshops and Camps offer students a safe, educational and fun alternative to sitting in front of the TV or at a babysitter. Offering several one week camps and a three week workshop, there is something for everyone and all ages at MPAA this summer!
Summer Musical Theatre Workshop
Ages 13 and under
Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. students will rotate through specially geared classes that expose them to all the areas of the arts. Classes students will rotate through include acting, singing, jazz, ballet, tap, music theory, technical theatre, costume design, art, theatre history, stage make-up and other special workshops. A special element of this program is our booked-curriculum and highly qualified staff of educators whose goal is to enrich each student’s life through the arts. Students will explore all the areas of the arts and be able to focus on the areas they excel in most and work on the areas they don’t.
During summer programs, students will use the talents they learn in class to put together their own fully-staged production of Disney’s Alice in Wonderland Jr. Space is limited and class size is kept small to ensure students are able to really learn. We hope that your student will join us this Summer!
