Camp Broadway is the industry leader in presenting an immersive Broadway experience for amateur performers. Taught by experienced directors, choreographers, musical directors and teaching artists in a professional rehearsal studio, Camp Broadway creates a non-competitive and safe environment for children to improve their presentation and communication skills through voice, dance, and acting classes; master classes with Broadway artists; and interaction with creative talents. They also get insight into the many careers on Broadway with a day-long field trip to a Broadway show that features a session with members of the backstage crew, lunch with working actors and attendance at a Broadway show. The program also provides official rehearsal t-shirts, daily healthy lunches and snacks and lots more. Camp Broadway® culminates in a special Family Finale musical presentation for family and friends.

Since its inception in 1995, Camp Broadway has hosted nearly 20,000 children from all over the world at its annual camp and special events in New York City.
