Camp Perform: Musical Theatre

A fun, inclusive musical theatre summer camp with Impact Kidz, where young people build skills, confidence and creativity while working with industry professionals. We’re delighted to announce this year’s Musical Theatre Summer Camp at artsdepot, running for 11 days from Monday 3 – Friday 7 August and Monday 10 – Friday 14 August, culminating with a performance on Saturday 15 August. We’re excited to welcome both familiar faces and those joining us for the first time. A smaller camp, a richer creative experience In previous years, our summer camps have culminated in large‑scale productions in the Pentland Theatre. This summer, we’ll be working in the more intimate Studio Theatre with a smaller group of up to 30 performers. With fewer participants, we’re able to offer a more personal, focused and creatively rich experience, with clearer support, deeper creative exploration and a new style of final sharing. A brand‑new, original musical This year, participants will perform in a newly devised musical theatre production: The Theatre That Lost Its Magic Using some of musical theatre’s most iconic songs, the show follows a group of performers who discover a forgotten theatre where the magic of performance has faded. Through creativity, courage and collaboration, they work together to bring it back to life. Because the show is created around the group, every participant is fully involved: • Each young person has a featured role and meaningful stage time • Solos, duets and ensemble moments are tailored to individual strengths • Participants help shape characters, scenes and the story • Young people receive focused coaching and creative support The camp will culminate in an original performance created especially for this group of young people, presented in the Studio Theatre. Important information • Participants must be available for the full two weeks • All information provided will be shared with Impact Theatre Company and artsdepot for the purposes of delivering the camp
