Goals
To bring an all-encompassing theatre camp experience to Scott County and Central Kentucky, that ALL children can learn from, enjoy, and love!
All children ages 7-18 years are welcome!
Mission Statement
We want every child that comes through our doors to know that they are loved, safe, cared for, and accounted for. That at our camps, we not only want them to have fun, but to grow as a young artist and actor. For them to make new friends, learn new skills, and take on artistic challenges headfirst. To teach them to be problem solvers, active helpers, and excited learners. So that when they leave each day, they can't wait to come back! And when camp ends, they will have memories to last a lifetime, and fresh new skills to take to their next theatre adventure!
