For Students ages 6-17, Great Lakes Theater Camp is a summer drama camp with musical theater elements that immerses students in interactive and educational theater-based activities. Theater Camp is a unique opportunity for students to work with and learn from Great Lakes Theater’s professional teaching artists in a fun, safe and supportive environment.
Theater arts promote social and emotional skills, critical thinking and problem solving, as well as build confidence - all while having fun with new friends. Join us for a fun-filled two weeks that your child will never forget!
Daily classes will be held at the beautiful new Brook Park Elementary School, equipped with a full auditorium and state of the art classroom facilities in a two-week session from Mondays through Thursdays (no Fridays), June 10-20, 2024. The program is designed for students of all levels of experience and ability. There is no audition required. Classes will be divided by students’ respective ages. Theater Camp features classes in acting, Shakespeare, movement, improvisation, stage combat, mask making and, new this year, musical theater!

I can’t believe that this is my daughter’s last year as a camper with your program...This is the start of the “lasts” as she enters her Senior year in high school...I want to thank you all for your time, talent and love that you have given her over the years... This is where she first realized she enjoyed the stage and acting. Your summer program...gave her so much confidence in herself as well as a lot of joy. She always came out of your camp days with a big smile and loads of stories and laughter. She has met like souls, and I am hoping they keep in touch as they have been doing.
