This summer, the stage belongs to you.
Our Theatre Camps at Gaslight-Baker Theatre are designed for young performers of all experience levels, from first-timers to seasoned students ready to grow. Across multiple weeks and age groups, campers will explore acting, movement, storytelling, and collaboration in a fun, supportive, and high-energy environment.
Each camp is led by experienced instructors who know how to challenge students while keeping the process engaging and accessible. Whether they’re building confidence, learning the basics, or diving into more advanced performance work, every student will have the chance to create, connect, and take real steps forward as a performer.
From imaginative theatre games to focused rehearsal work, no two days are the same. And for many of our camps, the experience builds toward a final showcase or full production, giving students the opportunity to step into the spotlight and share their work with family and friends.
If your child loves to perform, create, or simply try something new, this is where it starts.
