2022 Summer Theater Camp

Students in grades K-8 will love playing different roles in our shows each week! This year, there will be a chance not only to be cast as an actor but your student could also be cast as a Stage Manager or Assistant Director and get real experience on what it is like to be on the production team! Previous theatrical experience is not necessary.

Summer Camp will be held on the HCPAC campus, Monday through Friday weekly from 9:00AM-4:00PM with the camp production showcase held on each Friday afternoon at 4:00PM.

HCPAC Theater Camps offer great opportunities for students to explore creating character(s), memorizing lines, or even assistant directing a show. Students who attend HCPAC theater camps more fully develop key life skills such as oral communication, teamwork, commitment, self-discipline and healthy self-image(s) as they work together with other students to produce the end-of-camp production.

Camp registration fee is $110 per week/camp and includes free admission for family and friends to the camp showcase.  (Tshirts are no longer available.)

Again this year our camp directors will provide before and after camp childcare for an additional cost. Please email [email protected] for more information.

NEW THIS YEAR: Parents of students attending all 10 weeks of camp may reserve the 10 weeks for a $25 per week down payment, then pay weekly throughout the summer. Please email [email protected] for more information or to register your student(s) for all 10 weeks of summer camp.

Participation is limited. Register by April 1st and get an early bird 10% discount.

A signed Camper Participation form must be submitted for each camper on Monday morning of the first week of camp the student attends. Get the form here.

Our programming is generally non-refundable. When a student is registered for summer camp, preparations are made to include them in our programming. These preparations include hiring additional staff and purchasing supplies. We understand that families register their students for summer camps months before the beginning of camp and from time to time a student may not be able to attend a specific week of camp after registering due to an unforeseen circumstance. In this case, we suggest that the student attends an alternate week(s) of camp. When this is not possible, refund requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. All approved summer camp refunds will not include the camp shirt costs and the $25 non-refundable deposit.
