During the summer, Christian Performance Theatre (CPT) puts on week-long musical theater day camps for students ages 5-18. Camps are designed to be a fun and energetic immersion into the world of musical theater. Camps are jam-packed with games, activities, and interactive workshops that build performance skills, self-confidence, and teamwork. Typical camps include team competitions; rotations through drama, dance, and music workshops; and a concluding showcase for family and friends. Through praise, worship, prayer, and daily devotions, CPT teen camps are particularly focused on spiritual growth.
CPT Summer Camps are all about fun, friendships, and theatrics. Camps are a great yearly tradition for your child!
