Theatre Calgary Summer Camps
Summer camps at Theatre Calgary draw kids into the magical world of the theatre. Camps are for kids in grades 3 to 12 with one-week camps or two-week intensives. But these programs also build confidence in young artists. They support the growth and joy of every camper as they build skills and expand their abilities. Camps run from 9 AM – 4 PM and culminate in a final performance to share what campers have learned and accomplished.
