My child hasn't done theatre---can they participate?

Absolutely! Because our classes focus on creativity, collaboration, and building skills, Asolo Rep's camps are exciting for beginners and experienced students.

These classes are for young people who love using their imaginations, have a dramatic side, and/or enjoy creating and acting out stories. No experience necessary – theatre is for everyone! 

Please contact education@asolo.org if you have questions about the suitability of a particular class. 

What will my child be doing in camp?

Each week of camp brings something new and exciting. Campers will respond to weekly themes, explore different stories, and learn skills and techniques through theatre exercises, games, and activities. 

The emphasis of each week-long class is on skill-building and the process of collaboratively creating stories and works of art and not on rehearsing a polished play.
