Choosing the Best Performing Arts Camp for you (your son or daughter) is all about your level of interest, performance experience, how far you want to travel from home, and the amount and intensity of training and performance experiences you expect.
There are dozens of great summer camps for young performers. Some are part of regional theaters, professional ballet companies, or university music programs. Other camps offer performing arts as part of a tradional day or overnight summer camp experience.
Some performing arts camps are "just for fun" and some involve rigourous professional training -- be sure to ask so you know exactly what to expect.
Top Music, Dance, and Acting Intensives for more experienced performers are now offered in literally every corner of the US and Canada. Many of these are professionally oriented and require rigorous auditions, either in person, or on video. Most summer performing arts programs that require audtions will put a notice in their camp directory listing, but you should always contact the camps to make sure EXACTLY what they require.
