Hey Moms – if you’re still looking for camps, try Asheville Community Theater’s summer theater camp called Backstage Pass.
My kids LOVE it! We’ve signed them up for this year. It’s popular - you have to sign up early or get on a waiting list. The 7 year old gets to act, sing, and do improvisation. FUN! Lots of imagination stuff going on – the older is 13 and STILL wants to go!
This year they are going to act in 2 different theaters downtown and have a performance. Kids have a chance to perform and learn theater skills – no one is left out. This is really a deal because so many activities involve competition and those that are still learning skills can get pushed aside.
Teachers work with the theater during the year so if your kids come in to audition – they already know their skills! I’ve seen many kids get parts in the yearly lineups that have been in the classes.
