IRT Theatre Camp

IRT THEATRE CAMP

Bring theatre to life at the IRT! Children new to theatre can learn the basics in the introductory camps, while more advanced actors can sharpen their skills at our intermediate camps. For those with specialized interests, we offer classes in musical theatre, improvisation, technical theatre and fight and movement choreography. Small class sizes, highly trained theatre professionals with teaching experience, and an inclusive environment make IRT Theatre Camp a great way to grow as an actor and person. Classes are available for students ages 8-15, as well as mini camps for students ages 5-7.
