For over 20 years, Way Off Broadway has been offering budding young actors and actresses the opportunity to hone their craft during the theatre's annual summer camp.
Registration for The Way Off Broadway Dinner Theatre's 2025 Summer Theatre Camp will begin on April 1st. For over 20 years, Way Off Broadway has been offering budding young actors and actresses the opportunity to hone their craft during the theatre's annual summer camp. These camps focus on all aspects of musical theatre through vocal music, acting exercises, and basic choreography as students rehearse for a full musical production at the end of the session. For its theatrical production this summer, the camp will be presenting Beetlejuice, JR.
The ghost-with-the-most comes to the stage in Beetlejuice, JR., the frightfully funny musical based on the beloved motion picture turned Broadway phenomenon. Lydia Deetz is a strange and unusual teenager, still grieving the loss of her mother and obsessed with the whole “being dead thing.” Lucky for Lydia, she and her father move to a new house haunted by a recently deceased couple and Beetlejuice, a delightful demon with a real zest for life. When Lydia calls on Beetlejuice to scare away anyone with a pulse, this double-crossing specter shows his true stripes, unleashing a (Nether)world of pandemonium.
This year's camp will be held July 21st – 31st from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m., Monday – Thursday. Camp is open to students ages 9 and older. Registration is $525 per student.
Registration is limited and done on a first-come, first-serve basis beginning Tuesday, April 1st. For complete details about this year's camp, including registration information, visit the theatre's website at www.wayoffbroadway.com.
