Get ready for an unforgettable week of creativity, confidence, and under-the-sea adventure! This summer, members of CHS Thespian Troupe #971 invite students currently in 4th through 7th grades to dive into the exciting world of musical theater as we bring Finding Nemo KIDS to life. From July 13–17 (9:00am–3:00pm), campers will sing, dance, act, and collaborate as they learn what it takes to put on a full production—all while making new friends and building skills that last far beyond the stage.
The week culminates in a public performance on Friday, July 17 at 7:00pm, where our talented campers will showcase everything they’ve learned in a 30-minute musical filled with heart, humor, and adventure. Whether your child is brand new to theater or already loves the spotlight, this camp is the perfect place to explore their creativity, grow in confidence, and be part of something truly special. Come make a splash with us this summer! 🐠✨
