Students going into 4th, 5th, or 6th Grades
This summer, let your child step into the spotlight with 101 Dalmatians Jr., a fun-filled musical adventure based on the beloved Disney classic! Designed for young performers entering 4th through 6th grade, our summer camp provides a fantastic opportunity for kids to develop their acting, singing, and dancing skills in a supportive and exciting environment.
In 101 Dalmatians Jr., the lovable Dalmatian couple, Pongo and Perdita, must outsmart the villainous Cruella de Vil to save their adorable puppies from her clutches. With a cast of playful puppies, quirky villains, and helpful animal friends, this show is full of action, humor, and heart. Featuring catchy songs like Cruella De Vil and Dalmatian Conga, this high-energy production is perfect for young actors to explore their creativity and build confidence on stage.
Whether your child is new to theater or already loves to perform, this camp is a great way for them to make new friends, learn teamwork, and experience the magic of putting on a show. Enroll today and watch your child shine in a summer filled with music, fun, and adventure!
Campers will delve into the exciting realms of theater and music through interactive games, exercises, and hands-on activities. Throughout the camp, participants will learn various theater and music techniques, develop their skills, and gain a deeper appreciation for the performing arts.
