Our 2024 Summer Showtime production This performance camp is designed with the musical theatre lover in mind. Each day will begin with group warm-ups where campers will prepare to use their voices, bodies and minds for rehearsal. Campers will learn music, choreography, and all of their lines while working together as an ensemble. The Summer Showtime cast will then take their places in the spotlight for four public performances on the Virginia Rep Center stage.

Send a 1 minute song to Vivian Schwartz at vschwartz@virginiarep.org with the subject "Summer Showtime Audition - (Your Name)”. Please include the auditionee's name, age and any other additional information about previous performance experience.

Health & Safety at Camp

In-person summer camps are back! Covid-19 protocols include regular sanitation of high touch areas, daily temperature checks, smaller class sizes and lower camp capacity. In order to ensure the safety of all participants, all campers and staff are required to provide proof of updated vaccination before the start of camp. Mask wearing is encouraged, but optional for campers. Offering a safe and clean environment for educating your children is our highest priority, and we are very much looking forward to welcoming our patrons and students to the new Virginia Rep Center for Arts and Education.
