TADA! Youth Theater is busy whistling while they work preparing for their week-long holiday camp, December 27-30. This camp is just one of the programs the 27-year-old TADA! produces, in fact they are currently preparing for the musical, The History Mystery, which opens on January 20 (and runs through February 19). The Drama Desk and Coming Up Taller Award-winning TADA! provides young people of all different backgrounds the opportunity to explore and perform musical theater together in an educational, supportive, and professional environment.
Camp is a great activity for your kids during the most wonderful time of the year – for those curious about TADA! classes and camps (January 14 – April 3), there is an Open House on January 7th which would be a great preview for the winter semester of classes, the January 16th One-Day camp, or the February 20th President’s Week camp.
