Performing Arts

Summer Theater Program

Whether it’s her first time on stage or her tenth, there is a role in our theater program for every girl to grow in skill and confidence. Campers participate in all aspects of staging a performance from acting and singing to choreography, set and costume design and stage management. Daily improvisation, camper-written skits and theater games result in fun and laughter. Theater workshops and dramatic exercises lead to the chance to shine in plays and musical reviews for the whole camp. We produce 2 productions each session in our very own Playhouse.

Summer Dance Program

Dancers experience small group instruction in ballet, jazz, modern and hip hop and choreograph their own dances for the annual dance show. Whether an experienced dancer or trying dance for the first time, every girl can learn and excel in our intimate program. Our dance studio, with a NEW state-of-the-art sprung floor, is the perfect spot for creating a new routine or rehearsing a big number. The confidence and stage presence our campers acquire stay with them for a lifetime.

Dance

Music Instruction

Summer Music Program

Piano, vocals, guitar, keyboards, ukeleles, hand-drums and more make up our active music program. Working individually and in groups girls are able to explore their musical talents trying out an instrument for the first time, or improving skills and expanding on lessons from home. Our weekly campfires often feature girls sharing musical performances learned in the Kippewa music studio.
