The Patel Conservatory’s summer camp for "Pippin" invites aspiring young artists from across the region to explore the magic of musical theater. Through an engaging curriculum that focuses on dance, acting, and vocal training, students will have the opportunity to develop their skills while working alongside seasoned professionals.
Dance, acting, and vocal training are all things covered during the summer camp.
Led by experienced instructors, this intensive program offers a supportive and collaborative environment that encourages growth and self-expression.
"I would say the summer camp is really for that student that wants to pursue this outside of a high school production, so our kids that come to these intensive summer camps usually have already had a bit of training before they come here. It is an audition only invitation," said Jessica Rhodes with the Patel Conservatory.
Students learn a full production in three weeks at the summer camp.
With its renowned reputation for excellence in arts education, the Straz Center’s Patel Conservatory continues to provide aspiring performers with exceptional opportunities.
