Summer Musical Theatre Camp
St. Mary’s Musical Theatre Camp is a fun and unique experience that offers students ages 14-19 (OR will turn 14 on or before Sept. 1, 2024) the opportunity to learn a full-length Broadway musical in just one week. Ending the week with two performances free to the public, every student can showcase skills learned on the stage or behind the scenes.
Students will come together in the evenings for group activities. This time as a community allows students to support each other and grow closer as an ensemble through prayer, discussion and reflection activities. These activities always focus on themes and questions present in this year’s musical, offering a meaningful accompaniment to the rehearsal process.
We are not yet accepting registration for Summer 2025.
