The WordPlayers announce an expansion on their summer theatre camps for ages 8 to 16 during June 2025.
Summer camp for younger theatre artists, ages 8-12, is based on Tales from the Arabian Nights. The students delve into ancient adventures set in Arabia, Persia, the Indian Ocean and China with Aladdin and his Magic Lamp, Sinbad the Sailor and the mysterious storyteller, Scheherazade, who is believed to be based on the Biblical account of Esther.

Choose either of the two weeks available: June 2-6 and June 16-20.
Fees for the camp are $150.
Summer camp for older youth, ages 12 to 16, has focused scenes from Pride and Prejudice. This theatre camp features training in acting basics, team building and English country dance. The week ends with a performance in full costume for friends and family.
