Summer Program for Kids & Teens - BIG DISCOUNTS for Early Enrollment

Playwrights Theatre’s Creative Arts Academy summer camp for kids and summer theatre program for teens will begin on June 20, 2011 and run all summer long in two-week sessions. For more information and to register, visit www.ptnj.org or call 973-514-1787 X21.

The Full-Day Theatre Academy (Monday through Friday, 9:30 am – 4:30 pm) is designed for grades 4-6 and 7-9. Students work with a team of artists and alternate daily through classes in acting, musical performance, playwriting and play production. Students explore each skill and learn how to weave the various elements together into an engaging, original performance piece presented to family and friends. Full-Day sessions are available for Session B (July 5-July 15) and Session C (July 18-July 29). Each session concludes with a presentation for family and friends.
