CSCT is a safe, fun and unique theater camp experience “where every child shines." Each one week session features daily classes in acting, singing/music, dance, and outdoor fun lead by professional teaching artists. The supportive environment provides exposure to the performing arts while helping students build confidence in their own abilities and imagination. The camps culminate with a mini showcase performance on the last day of the session at 3:00 p.m . All campers will have the opportunity to perform for family and friends, featuring a variety of songs, dances and improv. The camper’s first half of the day will be filled with exercises that activate their bodies, voices, minds and imaginations. After lunch, campers will play fun outdoor games, followed by a fun daily craft. *Young Helpers Camp-$300 is open to children entering 7th grade in the Fall up through children entering 10th grade in the Fall This program is designed to help some of our older children learn to be leaders. With guidance from our staff, young helpers will get the opportunity to lead our younger children in fun theater games, as well as work with kids to learn songs and dances. They will also help with costumes and craft activities. In addition, the young helpers will get the opportunity to perform for their younger audience and will present a special number on the last day of camp for our afternoon performance. Young helpers are expected to arrive at camp at 8:30 every morning and leave at 3:30 pm. This will give them a chance to set up before the younger kids arrive/are dismissed and to review tasks for the day/following day. Refunds are considered on a case by case basis.

An additional prorated amount will apply if the child attended any days of camp. 2023 Camp Sessions Week 1: July 24th-July 28th-Discover a world of Pure Imagination with highlights from Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka Jr. Week 2: July 31st-August 4th-Be Our Guest and discover a tale as old as time with highlights from Disney's Beauty and The Beast Jr. Week 3: August 7th-11th-March with Seventy-six trombones as we explore highlights from The Music Man Jr. Week 4: August 14th-18th-Discover How Far you can go as we explore highlights from Disney's Moana Jr. CSCT Camp Information Location of all Camps: Mission Hills United Church of Christ 4070 Jackdaw Street San Diego, CA 92103 Regular Camp Hours: 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM (8:30 am-3:30 pm for Youth Helpers) Daily Schedule: 8:45-9:00 AM Drop off and check in 9:05-9:20 Warm Up Activity/Announcements/Schedule 9:25-10: 15 Morning Rehearsal 10:25-10:35 Snack 10:40-10:50 Theater Game 11:15-12:00PM Rehearsal 12:05-12:35 Lunch 12:40-1:20 Games In The Park 1:30-1:45 Refocus activity 1:50-3:00PM Afternoon craft and or Rehearsal Cost: CSCT Theater Camp-Grades 1st-6th, $325 per 1 week session (Includes camp T-Shirt) CSCT Young Helpers-Grades 7th-10th $300 per 1 week session (Includes camp T-Shirt) Lunch and Snacks: A full day of the arts requires a lot of energy.
