Spotlight Kids Summer Drama Camp

CEPA's Spotlight Kids club is BACK for another summer of singing, dancing, and arts education and we cannot wait for our next group of campers! Kids Camp is an annual summer program where students ages 7-17 come together to create a full musical in just under two weeks! Students are assisted by camp staff as they prepare their audition, rehearse their role, and create sets and costumes to bring their show to life. 

Spotlight Kids Summer Drama Camp is a M-F full day camp, specific dates and times listed below. Students are required to provide their own lunch. Students will not have access to any cooking supplies or microwaves, so please only cold lunches that do not require refrigeration.

Spotlight Kids Summer Drama Camp

Last July, many members of Spotlight Kids came together for two weeks to put together a production of Shrek Jr.! In under eight days, Director Maci Johnsey had completed the entire show. Hundreds of local community members as well as the camper’s family and friends attended the performances. The talented campers blew away everyone who attended the shows!

Thank you to all the parents, family, and friends for coming to see Shrek the Musical Jr! We want to give a huge round of applause for our campers and counselors for their hard work and dedication. The show was absolutely amazing, and we couldn’t be prouder. We hope to see you again this summer!
